Sam Howell, Philadelphia Eagles3 of 5AP Photo/Terrance Williams Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam HowellSam Howell is far less experienced than Jameis Winston and Andy Dalton, but he can be the Bengals' long-term backup option for oft-injured Joe Burrow. In 2023, his second year with the Washington Commanders, Howell threw for 3,946 yards, 21 touchdowns and a league-high 21 interceptions. While that stat line may give you Winston vibes, he played in an imbalanced system under offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy. Howell would have a much stronger supporting cast in Cincinnati than he had in Washington. Furthermore, head coach Zac Taylor is a more experienced play-caller than Bieniemy was two years ago in his first offensive coordinator position separate from Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.
