CINCINNATI — Trey Hendrickson shipped a jersey to a famous NFL figure. Former star NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski praised the edge rusher on his podcast with Julian Edelman, Dudes on Dudes, and noted that Hendrickson sent him a signed Bengals jersey.

The 30-year-old defensive end just led the NFL in sacks last season (17.5).

"I faced him a couple of times. Strong guy, built strong. Can't really move him, you know, high motor, hard worker," Gronkowski said on the show. "He was cool enough, he wanted the jersey swap with me so he actually sent me one of his Cincinnati Bengals jerseys. Check it out, man. It's one of the coolest jerseys I actually ever put my hands on. I'm telling you the material feels good. It looks good."

The two faced off two times back in 2020 when Gronkowski was with the Buccaneers and Hendrickson was in his final year as a New Orleans Saint.
