If you want all my best nuggets and notes from Bengals training camp, keep this link handy. Will have the choice cuts of what I’m seeing and hearing each day: espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
"The deal is in place for Trey Hendrickson and the Bengals but there's a disagreement over the guaranteed money.. It's a big disagreement so far" ~ @AdamSchefter #PMSLive
Shemar Stewart just had back-to-back PBUs off Jake Browning and the defenses erupted each time
Shemar Stewart was asked by @LaurelPfahler about Duke Tobin saying he was getting bad advice. Stewart responded with a ton of praise for how the negotiation was handled on his end.

More about first-round pick Shemar Stewart and the Cincinnati Bengals hammering home the contract language and finally reaching a deal, via @Ben_Baby: espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
Every one of Cincinnati's draft picks are now in the fold. The Bengals have agreed to terms with DE Shemar Stewart on his rookie deal, per @AdamSchefter.
Since it was just referenced in a group chat, thought we should look back on Tate Martell and Nick Starkel's career stats given Martell's shade of Starkel back in the day. Martell: 35 career pass attempts, 303 passing yards, 1 TD Starkel: 35 games, 6,933 pass yds, 48 TDs
Bengals offense has been cooking in the red zone all day. Ja’Marr Chase just made an insane 1-handed basket catch and somehow got both fit in bounds before going out the back corner. Unreal.
Tee Higgins just made a nice snag on a deep ball from Joe Burrow in an 11-on-11 drill.
To get an idea of why Shemar Stewart is fighting against the void language in his rookie deal, the Colts were able to get out of a large portion of Trent Richardson’s guaranteed money back in 2015: profootballrumors.com/2015/01/colts-…
Story on Joe Burrow's disappointment in how the contract discussions with Trey Hendrickson, Shemar Stewart have lingered into the start of training camp: espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
Bengals coach Zac Taylor said he anticipates playing QB Joe Burrow more in preseason games “than we ever have” as they ramp up for Week 1.
