Jason Campbell: Won't be attempting return to NFL
Jason Campbell will not attempt an NFL comeback, Bryan Franz of 106.7 The Fan DC reports.Campbell's tweet Wednesday was not, in fact, from his personal account, but was actually a hoax. Thus, his first snap since 2014 isn't imminent, nor is it likely to come to pass. Over the course of his nine-year career, he put together a 60.3 percent completion percentage to go with 87 touchdowns and 60 interceptions in 90 games.

Jason Campbell: Seeking NFL comeback
Jason Campbell relayed Wednesday that he's "ready to play again" in the upcoming campaign.Campbell took a tour of Ohio in his last two seasons, taking his most recent snap in 2014 with the Bengals, while making his last start the previous year as a member of the Browns. Overall, his nine-year career includes a 60.3% completion percentage, 6.7 yards per attempt, and 87 touchdowns versus 60 interceptions across 90 games. If a tryout in the coming months yields an opportunity to participate in training camp, the 34-year-old would merely provide competition for the incumbent reserve quarterbacks.

Marvin Lewis: 'No problem with Andy Dalton as our quarterback'
The Cincinnati Bengals are sticking with Andy Dalton at quarterback and have no plans to bring in competition. But coach Marvin Lewis didn't exactly give Dalton a ringing endorsement. Noting Dalton, Carson Palmer and Jon Kitna have started all but 12 of his 198 games as Cincy's coach, Lewis said he prefers the status quo. “Fortunately, somehow I’ve got the right little thing on my shoulder that says, ‘Don’t get into a quarterback controversy,’” Lewis told the team's website. “That’s worked from Jon to Carson to Andy. It’s helped us have the success we’ve had and those guys have been good players, productive players. Even when they’ve left out of here they’ve been productive. It works.“We have no problem with Andy Dalton as our quarterback. We don’t have time to waste time with another QB. To not continue to press forward and get Andy better and to get whoever the backup quarterbacks are better. The quarterback competition. Where has it worked? It doesn’t get you wins.” The team hopes to re-sign Jason Campbell as Dalton's backup.

Andy Dalton not expected to face competition
The Cincinnati Bengals aren't expected to draft a quarterback and are prepared to enter 2015 with the same three quarterbacks they had this season, reports the team's website. That means Andy Dalton starting, Jason Campbell backing him up and AJ McCarron as the developmental project. “He’s our guy and we’re not going to shy away from that,” offensive coordinator Hue Jackson said of Dalton. Added quarterbacks coach Ken Zampese: “He was better with the intangibles this year and the ball was better coming out of his hand. You could see that right away when he came back from the last offseason.” Jackson hopes the team re-signs Campbell, an impending free agent, saying Campbell "did a sensational job in the role we asked him to play."
