After working out for the Titans earlier this week, quarterbacks Matt Barkley, Matt McGloin, and T.J. Yates worked out for the Bengals on Thursday, a source tells Field Yates of ESPN.com (on Twitter).
Each player was a training camp cut and each trekked to Nashville, Tenn., earlier this week for that group Titans audition. The Titans chose a fourth player in their workout group, Brandon Weeden, to be a likely temporary solution while Marcus Mariota battles a hamstring injury.
The Bengals have two active-roster quarterbacks in Andy Dalton and A.J. McCarron, but potential third-stringer Jeff Driskell is on IR with a shoulder injury. McCarron’s also been hobbled by an Achilles injury, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports tweets.
The Eagles cut McGloin after signing him earlier this offseason, and the Bills parted ways with Yates. The 49ers cut Barkley after signing him early in free agency.
Barkley worked out for the Patriots in September, while McGloin also traveled to that workout. Yates did not join that group in New England but is part of the traveling passer crew this week.
What no Kap reference….? He’s the greatest QB to ever call a huddle, a better leader of men than Patton, a stronger arm than Uncle Rico, TIME magazines man of the year, People magazine named him 1 of the 50 most beautiful people in the world, I believe he was a recent runner-up for a Nobel Peace prize…….if only the owners would let him play. Sad times we live in….
He is a Renaissance man isn’t he.
Wow!!
Ditto LA Sam
