Who Should I Start? AJ McCarron or Justin Fields

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.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (head) has officially been diagnosed with a concussion following Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Buffalo Bills. He was taken to the locker room in the second half to be evaluated, leaving Tyrod Taylor as the Jets' primary option under center. Fields finished Sunday's game having completed three of 11 pass attempts for 27 yards through the air, and he also added 49 rushing yards. The Jets will have one week until their next game, which leaves very little time for Fields to recover and clear concussion protocol. If he can't get healthy in time, Taylor would be in line to start at quarterback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
