Cincinnati Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson led the league in sacks last season, helped by a late surge. While he is not the favorite to win, he is one of five finalists for the Defensive Player of the Year Award. Should he win, he would be the third edge defender in the AFC North to win in the past four years.
And he would make the third AFC North edge rusher to face trade speculation this offseason. In the case of Hendrickson, he falls somewhere between T.J. Watt and Myles Garrett. Garrett himself requested a trade because he wants to be on a good team.
