CINCINNATI — Trey Hendrickson is in Cincinnati as he turns his contract holdout into a contract hold in following a rack up of $250,000 in fines to start training camp.

Hendrickson spent the start of camp away from the team and out of state in Florida. His return to Cincinnati does not indicate that the sides are any closer to an agreement, as he said "things are exactly the same" as when he left.

Cincinnati Bengals star defensive end Trey Hendrickson arrived at Bengals training camp on Wednesday but did not practice amid ongoing contract negotiations with the team.
