NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports the Bengals’ trade for Eagles EDGE Arnold Ebiketie has fallen through.

10 November 2026

The acquisition had not been finalized, according to Schultz, who said said the nixing of the deal “is not physical or performance related.” It could be related to the Ebiketie acquisition forcing the Bengals to forfeit a 2027 3rd round compensatory draft pick that via the team’s Trey Hendrickson trade to the Ravens. In any case, the Bengals will likely head into the second half of the season with one of the league’s worst pass rushes. Only the Bills and Chiefs have fewer sacks on the season.
