Brady Quinn· Jul 16, 2025
Quinn argued that Shemar Stewart has a legal case to return to college but predicted he won't actually do it, saying the holdout is leverage against the Bengals; he also suggested a trade would likely be involved if Stewart did return and Cincinnati retained his rights.
“I think there's a case to be made if things go south, but I personally don't think it's going to go that direction.”

Shemar Stewart to move to Cincinnati Bengals
“I think there's a case to be made if things go south, but I personally don't think it's going to go that direction. I really do think this is just him and his agent trying to use this as leverage.”
