In those seven starts, Hendrickson still managed 16 tackles, four sacks, three tackles for a loss, and eight quarterback hits. Hendrickson entered the year having made four consecutive Pro Bowls and was a First Team All-Pro selection in 2024 after leading the league with 17.5 sacks. In his nine-year career with the Saints and Bengals, Hendrickson has 81 career sacks and 74 tackles for a loss. He would be a massive addition for the Colts &#8211; or for any other team that jumps into the fray during free agency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #878787; position: relative;\">Category:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/rumors.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rumors<\/a> |<br \/>\nMore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/players\/trey-hendrickson.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trey Hendrickson<\/a>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/news\/trey-hendrickson.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/players\/trey-hendrickson.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rankings<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/projections\/trey-hendrickson.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Projections<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypros.com\/nfl\/stats\/trey-hendrickson.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stats<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                    <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"by David Leisering | Bengals Correspondent | Sat, Feb 14th 11:08pm EST Trey Hendrickson is not expected to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":754599,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2059],"tags":[2005,7,2004,392,2381,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-754598","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-indianapolis-colts","8":"tag-colts","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-indianapolis","11":"tag-indianapolis-colts","12":"tag-indianapoliscolts","13":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116076661699755583","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/754598","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=754598"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/754598\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/754599"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=754598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=754598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=754598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
