"CINCINNATI - Even after two rough outings, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning has the full backing of his head coach. On Wednesday, Bengals coach Zac Taylor stood steadfast in supporting Browning after back-to-back defeats in which the offense has struggled. "I've got a ton of confidence in Jake," Taylor said. "I'm unwavering in that. I've seen the best of Jake. I know that we can do a great job supporting him to where he can go win games for us.""
"But since then, the Bengals have scored a combined 13 points in two games and Browning has struggled. He has completed 63.5% of his passes for 265 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, giving five total turnovers in three games. Browning's Total QBR of 26.5 ranks 33rd out of 35 players. The only players with a worse rating, Cleveland Browns' Joe Flacco and New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson, have been benched by their respective clubs."

Since that win, the Bengals have scored a combined 13 points in two games and Browning has struggled. He has completed 63.5% of passes for 265 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, totaling five turnovers in three games. Browning's Total QBR of 26.5 ranks 33rd of 35. The Bengals initially surveyed available options to replace him.
