Bengals announce roster moves, including adding a QB

The Bengals make roster moves, including bringing on a QB.

The Cincinnati Bengals announced a handful of roster moves on Monday in the wake of Joe Burrow’s season-ending wrist injury.

On the quarterback front, the Bengals signed Drew Plitt to the practice squad, reuniting with the former undrafted free agent from 2022.

Plitt will be the new emergency third quarterback behind new starter Jake Browning and backup AJ McCarron. He spent time with the team out of college during the preseason and also had stints with other teams and the Arlington Renegades of the XFL.

The Bengals also cleared rookie running back Chase Brown to return from IR, opening his 21-day window to practice. He can be activated to the 53-man roster at any time during that span. The fourth-rounder suffered a hamstring injury before Week 8 and has missed the mandatory four games being being eligible to return.

Cincinnati also shifted rookie guard Jaxson Kirkland to the Practice Squad/Injured list due to a wrist injury.
