Wow Bengals Ownership found out about losing Compensatory picks on X. He called back Philadelphia Eagles and canceled the trade….

That trade fell through due to a compensatory pick formula complication.
​The deal would have sent edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie from the Eagles to the Cincinnati Bengals in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round pick. However, after agreeing to terms, the Bengals realized the transaction would severely backfire on their draft capital under the NFL's compensatory free agent rules:
​The Comp Pick Collision: The Bengals were projected to net a valuable compensatory draft pick (around the third round) for losing Trey Hendrickson.
​Why the Deal Collapsed: Because of how the NFL's strict compensation formula accounts for player acquisitions and movement, absorbing a player like Ebiketie via trade would have disrupted or canceled out that projected high-round compensatory pick.
​Realizing that trading a late-round pick for Ebiketie would inadvertently cost them a much more valuable mid-round compensatory pick, the Bengals backed out of the agreement at the last minute.
