The Bengals signed Sean Clifford and Mike White to their practice squad Tuesday, giving them a total of four quarterbacks in the organization. Jake Browning will replace Burrow as the starter, while Brett Rypien, who was signed on Aug. 27, was elevated off Cincinnati's practice squad Tuesday to the active roster.

The Cincinnati Bengals have begun to prepare for life without Joe Burrow.

White, 30, has played much of his NFL career in the AFC East — sans a stint with the Cowboys during his rookie year in 2018 — and spent the 2024 season with the Bills.
