What happened: Anthony Weaver addressed Trey Hendrickson as preparations continued for the 2026 season. Hendrickson finalized a four-year, $112 million contract in March.
Why it matters: Weaver will shape Hendrickson's role in a defense that recorded 30 sacks last season. The long-term commitment puts added weight on improving that pass rush.
By the numbers: Hendrickson has 81 sacks in nine NFL seasons and four double-digit sack campaigns. He recorded four sacks in seven games last season.
What to watch: Training camp will offer the next indication of how Weaver plans to deploy Hendrickson in 2026.
