In the wake of the injury to quarterback Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor had confirmed the team will add another quarterback to take training camp and preseason reps with Trevor Siemian and Jake Browning.
Not too long after that revelation, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Bengals hosted quarterbacks Reid Sinnett and Drew Plitt on workouts.
Plitt is the name Bengals fans will recognize. A Loveland High School product, Plitt was with the team last summer before going on to find success in the XFL.
As for Burrow, Taylor and the Bengals are keeping a lid on the return timetable other than classifying it as “several weeks,” which is to be expected for a calf strain with a variable recovery time depending on the person.
With #Bengals QB Joe Burrow sidelined for several weeks with a calf strain, Cincy is working out two former XFL QBs — Reid Sinnett and Drew Plitt (who was with the #Bengals in camp last year).
