Bengals head coach Zac Taylor has said repeatedly that he wants to take care of Joe Burrow this offseason. After having major surgery on his knee, the franchise quarterback is trying to get back to where he was last season.
Burrow, however, wants to be more aggressive than Taylor probably feels comfortable with.
The Bengals are beginning the preseason this week, and Brandon Allen is starting under center.
“I can confidently say that Brandon Allen will get more reps than our starting quarterback in the preseason,” Taylor said in a press conference on Sunday.
