The Cincinnati Bengals' season took a major turn this past Sunday, as Joe Burrow went down with a turf toe injury and backup quarterback Jake Browning came to the rescue in a 31-27 win over the Jaguars.
Browning has his fair share of supporters across not only Who Dey Nation, but also in the national media. And for good reason. After all, the perpetual backup QB was in this spot in 2023 and thrived en route to a 4-3 record as the starter.
Thanks in large part to that successful stint that lasted almost half a season, Browning was held in high regard in some recently-released backup quarterback rankings.
