But it goes well beyond that, too, with former NFL players, major media personalities and plenty of others having their say when it comes to the Bengals right now.

As always, the situation is more complex than the face-value commentary, given Hendrickson's past holdouts and short-term extensions. But the Bengals will continue to have a hard time shaking these types of public-perception issues when these problems keep coming up -- like the very public contract problem with first-round pick Shemar Stewart.
Here's a quick look at some of the commentary around Hendrickson and the Bengals right now:

Eovaldi pitches 5 scoreless innings as Rangers beat Braves 8-3
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Nathan Eovaldi pitched three-hit ball over five scoreless innings in his first start since the All-Star break and the Texas Rangers beat the Atlanta Braves 8-3 on Friday night. Eovaldi (8-3) threw 53 of his 86 pitches for strikes as Texas won its fourth straight and handed Atlanta a third straight loss. He struck out seven but walked a season-high four. It was also Eovaldi's first start since the Rangers paid him a $100,000 All-Star Game bonus even though the 35-year-old wasn't selected despite a 7-3 record and a 1.58 ERA. He missed his first start after the break — a matchup with AL All-Star starter Tarik Skubal and the Tigers — with back tightness. Sam Haggerty singled leading off the first against Joey Wentz (2-2) before stealing his 10th base and scoring on a sacrifice fly by Marcus Semien for a 1-0 lead. Jonah Heim hit his ninth home run — a two-out shot in the second for a 2-0 lead. Wyatt Langford had a two-out RBI double in the fourth and Sam Haggerty doubled in a run in the fifth for a 4-0 advantage. Three singles, two walks, a hit batter and a sac fly led to four runs in the eighth. Michael Harris II hit his eighth home run — a leadoff shot off Jacob Latz in the seventh to cut it to 4-1. Wentz allowed four runs in 4 1/3 innings. Corey Seager went 0 for 3 but walked twice to extend his on-base streak to 25 games for the Rangers. Austin Riley went 0 for 4 in his first game for Atlanta since suffering an abdominal strain on July 11. Key moment Texas had allowed two runs or fewer in a club-record-tying seven straight games until Caleb Boushley surrendered two in the ninth to end the run. Key stat Seager is the only player to have an on-base streak of 24-plus games in each of the last three seasons. Up next Braves RHP Grant Holmes (4-9, 3.81) starts against Rangers rookie RHP Kumar Rocker (4-4, 5.66) on Saturday. ___ AP MLB: The Associated Press

Paul Goldschmidt regrets bad throw in 12-5 loss to Phillies, Yankees' 9th error in 4 games
NEW YORK (AP) — If Paul Goldschmidt could do it over again, he would run to first base in an attempt to retire Nick Castellanos instead of trying an off-balance throw to the plate in a bid to prevent Trea Turner from scoring the tying run. Not only did Goldschmidt's throw not get the second out of the seventh inning but the Gold Glove first baseman's miscue was the ninth error in four games for the Yankees, who committed two Friday night in a 12-5 loss to Philadelphia that dropped them 5 1/2 games back of AL East-leading Toronto. 'I was playing in and he hit a little bit to my right, a little soft and I knew going to be a bang-bang play at first and tried to get him at home,' said Goldschmidt, a four-time Gold Glove winner. 'Looking back, I should have just made the play and went to first base there. I think even if I put that throw perfect, Turner's probably still beating that out." With Turner on third and Kyle Schwarber on second, Castellanos hit a 42-foot grounder at 61.4 mph to Goldschmidt, who was playing in. At the edge of the grass, Goldschmidt moved to his right, made an off-balance throw and the ball sailed over catcher Austin Wells' glove as Turner scored the tying run, Schwarber took third and Castellanos second. 'Probably too aggressive of a play by me to try and make a play where they were going to be safe anyway and it led to another base runner rather than just getting the out at first," Goldschmidt said. "So that was a mistake.' It was Goldschmidt's third error this season and the Yankees' 54th. Two pitches later, Luke Weaver hung a changeup that J.T. Realmuto hit for a tiebreaking, three-run homer. 'You're Paul Goldschmidt and you trust that I'm going to throw the ball on line,' manager Aaron Boone said. 'Even if we don't have a play there, maybe something happens. The runner trips or something, so you're trying to make a play there.' Weaver allowed his fifth homer in 12 appearances since making a quick return from a hamstring injury on June 20. He allowed home runs in three straight outings July 1-4 and had four straight scoreless appearances before Friday. New York's relievers allowed 10 runs and has a 4.28 ERA, 23rd among the 30 teams. The Yankees have a 6.20 ERA in July, the worst mark in the major leagues. 'It's a challenge right now, but we've got to have guys step up,' Boone said New York is 3-6 following a five-game winning streak. The Yankees are 21-27 opening a seven-game AL East lead with a 35-20 start, committing 30 errors during the slide. 'We're in a good spot to make a run here,' said Austin Wells, who hit one of the Yankees' four solo homers. 'I think the tides are going to turn.' ___ AP MLB:
