Bengals backup quarterback competition to heat up during intrasquad scrimmage

One of the best annual days at Bengals training camp is the intrasquad scrimmage pitting the first team offense against the second team defense and first team defense against the second team offense.

It’s also a great opportunity for the quarterbacks on the roster to go out and show what they can do. Andy Dalton is the undisputed starter in Cincinnati, but beyond him are three guys, two of whom have a legitimate shot at being his backup.

Those two guys are Matt Barkley and Jeff Driskel. The fourth quarterback on the roster is seventh round rookie Logan Woodside who has an undisclosed injury that’s kept him out of practice for several days now.
