"Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback C.J. Henderson could be on the move despite being just one year removed from going ninth overall in the 2020 NFL Draft, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler."

"Fowler also reports that there is no malice between the two parties and that Jacksonville could hold onto Henderson, but at the same time, the team likes its cornerback room outside of Henderson. The Jaguars recognize the value they can recoup for a talented player on a team-friendly deal and wouldn’t shy away from an offer."

The first part is the hook, the second is the bait.

It's like selling a used car, telling the buyer there's nothing wrong with it, in fact, you'd like to keep it, because it's a great car for all these various reasons, but you're open to an offer.

On the other hand, it's possible they floated this rumor in order to tell Henderson he's not as important as he might think he is, and they don't really care if he stays or not, and he better start talking to the team brass about what's up, or they will move him to another team.  A shot across the bow.
