2025 Fantasy Outlook
Browning's 2023 performance when Joe Burrow was injured gave him a new lease on his professional life, but Burrow remained healthy for the entirety of the 2024 season, limiting Browning to just five snaps and zero pass attempts. When we last saw Browning on the field, he struggled on occasion with the deep ball and against a good pass rush, though how many backup quarterbacks don't struggle against a good pass rush? Because he sits on such valuable backup quarterback real estate, Browning is still roster-worthy in select super flex formats, particularly now that both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are signed for the long term.

RANKS
Signed a two-year, $1.95 million contract with the Bengals in April of 2024.
Giving way to Flacco on Sunday
Browning is set to move into a backup role Sunday against the Packers with head coach Zac Taylor naming the newly acquired Joe Flacco the team's starting quarterback, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
With Browning having gone 0-3 as a starter since taking over for franchise quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) -- who remains on injured reserve -- in Week 3, the Bengals traded for Flacco on Tuesday. Taylor then quickly made the change at signal-caller, while noting Wednesday that Flacco fits the team's style, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. The 40-year-old will take all the first-team reps in practice ahead of Sunday's contest.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
An undrafted free agent in 2019, Browning got his first taste of NFL action early last year and then became the starter Week 12 after Joe Burrow was lost to season-ending injury. Safe to say, Browning exceeded expectations, keeping the Bengals in the playoff hunt until late in the year and leading the league in completion percentage (70.4). It was almost entirely built on short passes, though. Just 7.8 percent of his attempts were deeper than 20 yards, 28th in the league, and his average target depth was a mere 6.4 yards (31st). The only qualified QB lower than that was … Joe Burrow at 6.3 yards. Browning wasn’t corralled because of his lack of arm strength, but because the Bengals offense, for whatever reason, didn’t scheme deep. Browning, in fact, posted a 54.2 on-target percentage on downfield throws (9th). It’s enough to make him an option in two-QB leagues, should Burrow go down again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Bumped down to bench
Head coach Zac Taylor revealed Wednesday that Joe Flacco will start Sunday's game against the Packers, per Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site, relegating Browning to a backup role.
ANALYSIS
Browning took over as the Bengals' starting quarterback after Joe Burrow injured his toe in Week 2. After leading a comeback win in that game, Browning lost all three of his starts, and he's up to eight interceptions on the season. Browning's struggles led the Bengals to trade for Flacco on Tuesday, and Flacco has subsequently been named the team's starting quarterback.
