Football team the Bengals express confidence in quarterback Jake Browning, sign two more quarterbacks for backup options
Cincinnati Bengals Bolster Practice Squad with Addition of Sean Clifford and Mike White
The Cincinnati Bengals have made a move to strengthen their quarterback depth, adding Sean Clifford and Mike White to their practice squad. The decision comes following an injury to starting quarterback Joe Burrow, who is set to undergo surgery for a Grade 3 turf toe injury.
Sean Clifford, a fifth-round pick by the Green Bay Packers in 2023, served as the primary backup to Jordan Love as a rookie. However, he lost his backup job to Clayton Tune in 2024 and was released last month. Clifford hails from Cincinnati and will be returning to his home state to join the Bengals.
Mike White, on the other hand, played in one game for the Bills in 2024, but his most notable NFL moment was against the Bengals in 2021. In that game, he threw for 405 yards, three touchdowns, and caught a two-point conversion in a 34-31 win for the Jets. His most recent notable game was also against the Bengals, where he caught a two-point conversion from Jamison Crowder.
Currently, Jake Browning is the Bengals' starting quarterback. He has played in 13 career games, with 14 touchdown passes and 10 interceptions to his name. The Bengals' head coach, Zac Taylor, has expressed full confidence in Browning as the replacement quarterback.
The Bengals are expected to elevate Brett Rypien from the practice squad to be the backup quarterback for the upcoming game against Minnesota. However, with the addition of Clifford and White, the team is preparing for a "rollercoaster" ride, as described by wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
The Bengals' approach is to focus and execute, with the motto "Next man up" after their quarterback was injured. The team is known for their resilience and determination, and they will undoubtedly face this challenge with the same spirit.
The addition of Clifford and White to the practice squad is a strategic move by the Bengals to ensure they have the best possible options available should they need to call upon a backup quarterback. With the NFL season heating up, every game from here on out is expected to be a "rollercoaster" for the Bengals.
