The Cincinnati Bengals issued an apology after a proposed trade sending defensive end Arnold Ebiketie to the Philadelphia Eagles fell through on Wednesday.
The Bengals acknowledged the breakdown in negotiations in a statement released November 11, 2026, though specific reasons for the collapse were not disclosed.
Ebiketie, a former first-round pick, has been the subject of trade speculation in recent weeks. The Eagles were reportedly seeking to bolster their pass rush ahead of the playoff push.
Both teams have declined further comment on the matter.
