Dianna Russini: Trey Hendrickson Will Make A Decision Today
March 11th, 2026
Is today the day?
Joe has no idea if the Bucs are talking turkey with free agent edge rushing beast Trey Hendrickson or not. But several teams are, per a report last Tuesday night.
And per Dianna Russini of The Athletic, Hendrickson, who lives in Ponta Verde, went to high school at Warren Sapp High School in Apopka and to college at Florida Atlantic, will make a decision sometime today where he will play football this fall.
With the Bucs having a hole at edge rusher roughly half the size of the Grand Canyon, there is no good reason for the Bucs not to be pitching contract proposals to a guy who has had 74.5 sacks this decade and reportedly wants to play for the Bucs.
Since the cluster-eff of the non-trade of Maxx Crosby to the Crows in which Baltimore decommitted, logic suggests Baltimore is now in the mix for Hendrickson.
If the Bucs don’t land a true stud like Hendrickson who allegedly wants to play for the Bucs, and he would fill the most glaring need on the team, Joe would honestly be at a loss trying to figure out what the Bucs are trying to do this offseason.
Free agent pass rusher Trey Hendrickson is expected to make a formal decision tomorrow, per sources.
