Bengals' Stewart Leaves Mandatory Minicamp Early After Voicing Frustration with Rookie Contract Dispute
- Shemar Stewart, the Bengals' 2025 first-round pick, left mandatory minicamp early on June 10 due to a rookie contract dispute.

- Stewart expressed frustration with the team's front office, confirmed he would not practice until signing, but attends meetings and studies the playbook.
- He said, “I'm not asking for nothing y'all have never done before” and insisted he is “100 percent right” demanding fair contract terms.
- This standoff suggests ongoing challenges in rookie contract negotiations and may delay Stewart’s on-field integration during crucial preseason preparations.
