Overall
Signed a two-year, $1.95 million contract with the Bengals in April of 2024.
Not tendered, will become UFA
Browning will become an unrestricted free agent March 11, as the Bengals are not tendering the restricted free-agent quarterback, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Browning will test his market after making 10 regular-season starts for Cincinnati over the past three campaigns. Per Fowler, the Bengals are open to bringing Browning back, though Cincinnati benched Browning in favor of Joe Flacco while Joe Burrow was recovering from a toe injury during the 2025 season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In starting mix for Week 9
Browning has a chance to return to a starting role in Week 9 against the Bears, as Joe Flacco's status is up in the air due to an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
ANALYSIS
Browning started in Weeks 3, 4 and 5 after Joe Burrow injured his toe, but the Bengals lost all three of those games and traded for Flacco, who took over as the starter. If Flacco's sidelined in Week 9, Browning would reclaim the starting role against Chicago.
