There was some question for the Cincinnati Bengals when they made the decision to let free agent Carl Lawson walk, only to turn around and sign Trey Hendrickson to play the same position. Lawson signed with the New York Jets, and was supposedly looking really good—until he tore his ACL before the season began.
Hendrickson, coming over from the New Orleans Saints, had a career year, however, playing in 16 games, recording 14 sacks, with 12 tackles for loss, and 27 quarterback hits. He had three forced fumbles, the same amount that he had in his entire four-year career with the Saints.
