Cincinnati hasn't responded to his offseason trade request.
CINCINNATI — The Bengals haven't made an official move regarding Germaine Pratt's future amidst the linebacker's lingering trade request. He dropped an emoji post on X regarding the situation this week.
Pratt posted the sleeping Z's emoji in response to Matt Minich posting that he thinks Pratt will have his contract restructured instead of a release. It's no clear read one way or another from Pratt's response, but he's clearly paying attention to what's being discussed.
The veteran has started 88 games for the Bengals over the past six seasons, with 616 tackles, seven interceptions, and seven forced fumbles.
I get the funny feeling Pratt will be a restructure, not a cut
