Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick Shemar Stewart didn't report with the rest of the rookies for the start of training camp on Saturday, but a team executive doesn't think the contract standoff is solely his fault.

The Bengals don’t appear to be willing to budge on their stance as they feel it’s completely justified. Stewart thinks he’s done nothing wrong and has publicly stated his desire to receive a contract that mirrors what the most recent first-round picks in Cincinnati have received.

Bengals executives Mike Brown and Duke Tobin offered updates on the Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart situations on Monday.
