The former Bengals DE had some notable things to say during his first appearance as a member of the Ravens.

Former Cincinnati Bengals edge rusher Trey Henrickson had plenty to say during his introductory press conference with the Baltimore Ravens this week. Fresh off signing a four-year deal worth $120 million with the Ravens, Hendrickson described himself as in a โ€œ'win-now' window" with his new team. He also briefly touched on the tense last few years with the Bengals .

"It's exciting to start something fresh. I think that was overdue for me," Hendrickson said. "My family probably took a lot of things more personally than I did, which is saying something.

" Hendrickson and the Bengals didnโ€™t see eye-to-eye on his contract situation for a few years running, to say the very least. Reports said Hendrickson had a tough market in free agency before the Ravens lost out on Maxx Crosby by backing out of that deal with Las Vegas, then giving him the big contract. Now, Hendrickson says heโ€™s in a place that has no equal.

"Winning games is the most exciting thing about being here in the Ravens' building. There's a standard of winning here that's unmatched across the league," Hendrickson said. This article originally appeared on Bengals Wire: Trey Hendrickson makes interesting comments during Ravens debut
