Will Trey Hendrickson play today on Thanksgiving?

The Cincinnati Bengals will be without their best defensive player on Thanksgiving night at Baltimore in a key AFC North clash.

Defensive end Trey Hendrickson did not practice Monday or Tuesday with a hip/pelvis injury, which makes his Thursday availability a slim chance. Later, he was formally ruled out for the game, which isn't a major surprise considering how things were looking.

Hendrickson will likely be one of the big 2026 NFL free agents if the Bengals don't re-sign him. However, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow returning for the Ravens game makes Hendrickson's return important for the rest of 2025.

If Hendrickson can get healthy and the Bengals can get into a rhythm, perhaps Cincinnati can make a run?

At least for now, the Bengals will have to find a way to win without Hendrickson this week.
