Bengals Secure Backup Quarterback Amid Uncertainty Surrounding Joe Burrow's Health
With Joe Burrow's status uncertain for Week 3 due to a calf injury, the Cincinnati Bengals have signed quarterback Reid Sinnett to their practice squad as insurance. Sinnett had previously spent training camp with the Bengals. If Burrow is unable to play, Jake Browning will start, with Sinnett serving as the backup. The Bengals were forced to sign Sinnett after the Patriots poached Will Grier from their practice squad. Burrow expressed his desire to practice before making a decision on playing, but acknowledged that the final call may not be up to him. Burrow had returned in Week 1 after missing training camp due to the calf injury but aggravated it in Week 2.
