3 years agoThe Cincinnati Bengals re-signed quarterback Brandon Allen to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, according to a source. Allen was the team's top choice to back up Joe Burrow in 2022, and they are excited to have him back. It will be Allen's third straight season in Cincinnati. The 29-year-old has gone 107-for-176 for 1,074 yards, seven touchdowns and four interceptions in 11 games (six starts) for the Bengals in his two seasons with the team. He was initially a sixth-round pick of the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2016 out of Arkansas, and he made his NFL debut in 2019 with the Denver Broncos, making three starts. Allen would only have low-end QB2 appeal if he's forced into starting duties in the event of a Burrow injury.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
