The Cincinnati Bengals held voluntary Phase 2 workouts, with notable presences including Ja'Marr Chase, while key players like Joe Burrow and Germaine Pratt were absent. Burrow's absence follows his attendance at the Met Gala, raising eyebrows as he is a central figure in the team's aspirations. Pratt's absence is less surprising after his recent trade request. Other players missing include Trey Hendrickson, embroiled in a contract dispute, highlighting ongoing contract talks within the team.
