Bengals Release AJ McCarron

Wednesday, February 14, 2:08 PM

The Cincinnati Bengals announced on Wednesday that they released quarterback AJ McCarron. The Bengals signed McCarron back in November for more quarterback depth after starter Joe Burrow (wrist) was lost for the season. The 33-year-old veteran signal-caller appeared in two contests for Cincinnati in relief of Jake Browning down the stretch and went 4-for-5 for 19 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He'll be searching for a new team to play for this offseason. The former fifth-round selection of the Bengals in 2014 out of Alabama has a 63.1 career completion percentage with 1,192 passing yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions in his seven years in the NFL with Cincy, the Houston Texans and the Las Vegas Raiders.

Jalen Hurts Displays Dominance In Super Bowl Victory

Monday, February 10, 12:28 AM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 17 of 22 pass attempts for 221 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Super Bowl LIX victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. He also took two sacks, rushed for 71 yards, and added another touchdown on the ground. Hurts led five scoring drives before the Chiefs even scored their first point, and he did more than enough to win Super Bowl MVP. The 26-year-old continued to impress on a national stage, delivering numerous strikes on the money, including a gorgeous 46-yard touchdown pass to DeVonta Smith that gave the Eagles a 34-0 lead. Hurts should be viewed as a top-three fantasy quarterback heading into the 2025 campaign, and he could make a case for QB1 overall.
