Bengals' Jake Browning: Giving way to Flacco on Sunday
Jake Browning is set to move into a backup role with Joe Flacco having been named the starting QB for Sunday's game against the Packers, Geoff Hobson of the Cincinnati Bengals' official site reports.With Browning having gone 0-3 as a starter since taking over for franchise QB Joe Burrow (toe) -- who is on IR -- in Week 3, the Bengals traded for Flacco on Tuesday. Coach Zac Taylor then quickly made the change at signal-caller, while noting Wednesday, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic, that Flacco's style "fits our style" and that the 40-year-old will take all the first-team QB reps ahead of Week 6 action.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Likely shifting to backup role
Jake Browning is expected to move into a backup role at quarterback for Sunday's game against the Packers after the Cincinnati Bengals acquired Joe Flacco from the Browns on Tuesday, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.According to Morrison, the expectation is that Flacco will arrive in Cincinnati in time to take first-team reps at Wednesday's practice, and assuming the veteran signal-caller absorbs the new playbook quickly, he'll take over as the Bengals' new starter this weekend. As the Bengals' starter for the past three games, Browning led the team to an 0-3 record while completing 64.1 percent of his passes for just 5.6 yards per attempt, and he threw eight interceptions in total over 14-plus quarters since replacing an injured Joe Burrow (toe) midway through the team's Week 2 win over the Jaguars. Flacco -- who posted a 2:6 TD:INT and 5.1 YPA in four starts for Cleveland before being benched last week -- hasn't fared any better than Browning this season, but his longer track record of sustained success in the NFL looks like it'll be enough for him to serve as the team's preferred option under center until Burrow potentially returns later in the campaign.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Not guaranteed to start Week 6
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor was non-committal Monday when asked whether Jake Browning would start Sunday's game against the Packers, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.Browning has performed poorly in three starts since Joe Burrow was sent to injured reserve with a toe injury. After completing 33 of 52 pass attempts (63.5 percent) for 265 yards (5.1 YPA), one touchdown and two interception in losses to the Vikings and Broncos in Weeks 3 and 4, respectively, Browning bottomed out in the Bengals' 37-24 loss to the Lions on Sunday, throwing three more picks. Unless the Bengals elect to look outside the organization for a potential change at quarterback heading into Week 6, the other options beyond Browning would be backup Brett Rypien and practice-squad members Mike White and Sean Clifford.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Pads stats late
Jake Browning completed 26 of 40 passes for 251 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 37-24 loss to the Lions. He added four rushes for 31 yards.Browning's final line looks relatively positive, but he threw three interceptions by early in the third quarter that led directly to 14 points for the Lions. He salvaged his performance late in the contest with the help of heroics from Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, connecting with the duo for scores of 15, 64 and two yards. To add a final insult to the day, Browning was sacked for a safety to conclude the Cincinnati Bengals' final possession. While he looked to be one of the better backups in the league for the final seven games of 2023, Browning has six touchdowns as compared to eight interceptions while averaging only 6.1 yards per attempt in four games this season.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Uninspiring performance in loss
Jake Browning completed 14 of 25 passes for 125 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions while adding three rushes for four yards in the Cincinnati Bengals' 28-3 loss to the Broncos on Monday night.About the only true positive for Browning in the lopsided loss was that he managed to avoid turning the ball over against a ferocious Broncos defense. Browning took three sacks and averaged only 5.0 yards per attempt, with no Bengals pass catcher managing to exceed 32 receiving yards. Browning has completed just 63.4 percent of his passes and posted a 1:2 TD:INT over his first two full games as a starter, so it remains to be seen if head coach Zac Taylor considers a change to fellow backup Brett Rypien for a Week 5 home matchup against the Lions.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Rough afternoon in lopsided loss
Jake Browning completed 19 of 27 passes for 140 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions and rushed once for three yards in the Cincinnati Bengals' 48-10 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.The Vikings jumped on Browning and the Bengals early, establishing a 14-0 lead through one quarter, and the veteran backup was never able to get his side of the ball fully on track. Browning ultimately took three sacks and tossed a pair of picks in Minnesota territory, the first of which was a pick-six in the first quarter. Browning has demonstrated the ability to play appreciably better than he demonstrated Sunday in a game that got out of hand due largely to turnovers, but atoning for the poor performance in Week 4 could be a heavy lift with a road trip to Denver for a Monday night, Sept. 29 date with the Broncos on tap.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Looks set for significant run
Jake Browning appears set to take over as Cincinnati's starting quarterback for at least several weeks, with Joe Burrow (toe) slated to undergo surgery and expected to be facing a three-month recovery timetable, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.Browning stepped in to relieve the injured Burrow during Sunday's 31-27 victory over the Jaguars, completing 21 of 32 pass attempts for 241 yards and two touchdowns and three interception while also scoring on a game-winning, one-yard touchdown carry. The presence of the standout receiver duo of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins will assist Browning's efforts to produce while stepping in as Cincinnati's starter under center, beginning with a Week 3 matchup with the Vikings. The Cincinnati Bengals currently have Brett Rypien on the practice squad but are likely to add additional quarterback depth in the near future. While Browning may face additional competition in the weeks to come, he now becomes a priority add in fantasy formats that allow multiple signal-callers to be started.

Bengals' Jake Browning: Mixed results in comeback win
Jake Browning replaced an injured Joe Burrow (toe) in Sunday's comeback win over the Jaguars. He completed 21 passes on 32 attempts for 241 yards and two touchdowns and ran for the game-winning touchdown. He also threw three interceptions.Browning's interceptions were pretty rough, especially on the latter two throws. The Cincinnati Bengals will need him to tighten it up going forward as the schedule appears to be tougher. Burrow has torn toe ligaments and could be out several weeks, so the burden will likely fall to Browning in the near term.
