Josh Johnson Signs With Bengals

Sunday, March 15, 7:16 AM

The Cincinnati Bengals announced on Saturday that they signed free-agent journeyman quarterback Josh Johnson to an undisclosed deal. Johnson will continue his NFL career into his 11th season, and this will be his second stint with Cincinnati, as he also played for them back in 2013. The 39-year-old veteran has suited up for seven different teams in his career. He was with the Washington Commanders in 2025, going 34-for-54 for 372 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in five games (two starts). The Bengals needed some more quarterback depth going into the 2026 season after Jake Browning signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in free agency. As things currently stand, Johnson figures to compete with Sean Clifford for backup duties behind starter Joe Burrow. In his 10 NFL seasons, Johnson has completed only 58.7% of his 412 pass attempts for 2,669 yards, 14 touchdowns, and 18 interceptions.

Patriots Take Quarterback Behren Morton with Pick No. 234

Saturday, April 25, 3:01 PM

The New England Patriots have selected Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton with the 234th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star recruit, he spent five seasons at Texas Tech, starting games early into his career after taking over for an injured Tyler Shough and becoming the full-time starter and a team captain by 2024. Injuries have forced him to miss time throughout his career, but he has produced whenever he's been given the chance, and with time, he could develop into a quality NFL backup. The Patriots recently released veteran backup Joshua Dobbs, leaving Tommy DeVito as the only quarterback on the roster behind Drake Maye. Morton has a chance to stick in Foxboro as an emergency third quarterback who could eventually threaten for primary backup duties.
