It appears Brandon Allen will challenge Ryan Finley as Bengals’ backup QB

On Wednesday, it was reported that the Cincinnati Bengals were planning to add Brandon Allen as insurance and potentially to compete for being Joe Burrow’s backup. Allen most recently played for the Denver Broncos, but he was previously on the same Los Angeles Rams team as head coach Zac Taylor.

This leaves 2019 fourth-round pick Ryan Finley wondering what his role will be.

Finely started three games last year and was... less than spectacular. He was constantly hurried, sacked 11 times, and completed just 47.
