That wouldn\u2019t be the case with Hendrickson.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The problem with Hendrickson, 31, is that he\u2019s three years older than Crosby, 28. There is also loads of data showing edge rushers start to slip if not fall off a cliff when they hit 30.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Prior to last season, Hendrickson was a rock of stability. In the five seasons prior to last season, Hendrickson missed a grand total of four games.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Last year? Hendrickson was on injured reserve in early December with hip\/pelvis issues. Is the graduate of Warren Sapp High School in Apopka starting to break down?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is likely why Hendrickson would be cheaper than Crosby. But a season after getting burned by Haason Reddick, same age as Hendrickson, would Bucs AC\/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht be too skittish to lay a bunch of Team Glazer loot at Hendrickson\u2019s feet and risk getting singed twice in two years?<\/p>\n<p>READ NEXT<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joebucsfan.com\/2026\/02\/maxx-crosby-would-be-perfect-for-bucs-to-make-a-splash\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Maxx Crosby \u201cWould Be Perfect\u201d For Bucs To Make A Splash<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Trey Hendrickson And The Bucs February 8th, 2026 Damaged goods?
