With Dalton out, the Bengals will be bringing in Ryan Finley, a rookie quarterback that the Bengals selected in the fourth round. Finley was a three-year starter at NC State.
This was a long time coming, but fans should still be skeptical.
In Dalton’s eight starts, he dropped back 338 times which is on pace for 676. He has never even hit 600+ attempts in a season. He’s been used more than ever before, and the results haven't been pretty.
Dalton has put up 2,252 yards and has a below-average 60.
