Episode Details

The Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons made contrasting decisions regarding their star players, Trey Hendrickson and Kyle Pitts, respectively. The Falcons used the franchise tag on Pitts, while the Bengals let Hendrickson enter free agency. This move by Atlanta echoes the 2021 NFL Draft, where the Falcons picked Pitts ahead of the Bengals JaMarr Chase. The Bengals decision not to extend Chases contract last offseason was criticized, but the Falcons struggle to lock Pitts long-term has not received the same backlash. This situation underscores the significance of early draft picks and how the Falcons move indirectly influenced the Bengals successful selection of Chase.
