Who Should I Start? Jake Browning or Jaxson Dart

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning (ribs) is expected to miss time with a rib injury, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Browning filled in admirably for Joe Burrow when the latter missed a large chunk of last season with a wrist injury, prompting the team to re-sign him as their backup quarterback. Veteran Logan Woodside and undrafted free agent Rocky Lombardi will be the quarterbacks under center when the Bengals travel to Chicago for their second preseason game.

SNY's Connor Hughes writes that rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart looked comfortable, confident and in control during rookie minicamp over the weekend. Dart didn't look unsure of himself or jittery when deciding to make passes, which impressed Hughes. The Ole Miss product has a unique throwing motion, but that doesn't mean he's lacking in arm talent. Most of his passes at minicamp were within 15 yards of the line of scrimmage and they were impressive fastballs. Dart had two good days in a row in minicamp, which is good, but it should be taken with a grain of salt this early in the offseason. The 21-year-old is hoping to become New York's next franchise signal-caller, but after the Giants added both Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in free agency this offseason, Dart is fully expected to sit and learn in his rookie season in 2025.
