The Cincinnati Bengals will have quite a few players hitting the free agent market this offseason and will likely see most of them pack their bags and sign with new teams.
The Bengals are entering the most important offseason in franchise history after missing the playoffs for the third consecutive season.

Cincinnati’s front office will be working hard to rebuild the underlying defense, and will likely need to do it without a player like Trey Hendrickson.
Like Hendrickson, there are a number of defensive players set to hit free agency, such as Joseph Osei, Cam Taylor-Britt, Geno Stone and Cam Sample.
The offense also has several players on expiring contracts such as Joe Flacco, Noah Fant, Lucas Patrick, Dalton Risner and Kordell Watson.
According to Spotrac.com, here are some projected numbers for those listed above:
-
Trey Hendrickson: $25,449,056
-
Gene Stone: $7,636,850 (none)
-
Cordell Watson: $1,420,521
-
Lucas Patrick: $1,327,480
-
Cam Taylor-Britt: $9,162,200
-
Dalton Risner: $2,417,200
-
Cameron sample: $1,962,479
-
Tyson Anderson: $1,751,124
