Who Should I Start? Joe Burrow or Jayden Daniels

Saturday, August 16, 11:14 AM

The Cincinnati Bengals' starters will see a good amount of action in Monday's second preseason game against the Washington Commanders, according to head coach Zac Taylor. The Bengals played their starters for several series in last week's 34-27 preseason-opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Quarterback Joe Burrow was sharp in completing 9-of-10 passes for 123 yards and two touchdowns, while No. 1 wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase caught four balls for 77 yards and a score, and running back Chase Brown had five carries for 23 yards. The Bengals are trying to get into a rhythm before the regular season begins to avoid another slow start. They've opened 0-2 or worse three times in a row, and their failure to come out of the gates quickly has contributed to back-to-back seasons without a playoff berth.

Washington Commanders second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels and the team's starters are slated to play "a few series" against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday, head coach Dan Quinn said. The Commanders are taking a different approach after resting 30 players, including Daniels, in a 48-18 preseason-opening loss to the New England Patriots on Aug. 8. Washington will continue to go without No. 1 wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle), however. Even though McLaurin came off the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday amid a contract dispute, he's still not ready to suit up as he recovers from an ankle injury.
