Report: Jessie Bates 'Has No Intentions' of Reporting to Training Camp

The Bengals used the franchise tag on the 25-year-old in March.

CINCINNATI — Jessie Bates doesn't plan on reporting to training camp according to NFL Insider Josina Anderson. 

The Bengals have until 4 p.m. ET to strike a long-term deal with the 25-year-old, but that isn't expected to happen. 

"Jessie Bates has no intentions of reporting to training camp, nor playing on the franchise tag," Anderson tweeted. "The two sides are currently unable to come to terms on an extension on today's deadline for long-term deals for players designated with the tag."

Bates would make $12.91 million this season if he played on the franchise tag. He could cost himself that money if he decided not to play. 

I'm told #Bengals S Jessie Bates has no intentions of reporting to training camp, nor playing on the franchise tag, per league source.

The two sides are currently unable to come to terms on an extension on today's deadline for long-term deals for players designated with the tag.
