Cincinnati Bengals Sign Veteran QB Josh Johnson to One-Year Contract

The Cincinnati Bengals signed veteran quarterback Josh Johnson to a one-year contract to provide depth behind star Joe Burrow. Johnson, a 39-year-old with 19 years of professional experience across 14 teams, has played 50 NFL games with 11 starts, throwing 14 touchdowns and 18 interceptions. His familiarity with the Bengals and veteran presence aim to stabilize the backup role after recent offseason changes. This move addresses concerns following Burrow's injury history and the departure of backup Jake Browning.
