Trey holds all of the short term cards.  That's a situation of the team's construction.  Insistence on waiting to address extensions costs them money every time.  They can't seem to do two things at once.  As a result, we are looking at a very pedestrian defense with it's best player's foot halfway out the door.  Their most impactful acquisition this offseason (Stewart) is a huge wild card.  We'll be lucky if he compliments Trey at all, much less replaces his production.  

Does he? He has one play and that is to sit out. He starts getting fined if he misses any madatory practices, TC and games. His 15.8 million could become 10 million by October.

If he sits out 2025, the contract rolls over to 2026.

Sorry, Bengals hold the cards. They can bring it a vet to replace him after week #1 and the vet would not be guaranteed any money in 2025, so they could cut them if Trey came back from a hold out.
