Joe Burrow was asked Tuesday if Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson skipping mandatory minicamp is a distraction. He didn't hesitate in his response.

Trey Hendrickson isn't the only notable Cincinnati Bengals player missing from practices at the team's mandatory minicamp. First-round pick and fellow pass rusher Shemar Stewart said on Tuesday that he will not practice until his contract situation is settled.

The Cincinnati Bengals are expected to release veteran linebacker Germaine Pratt, according to an NFL Network report.
