Are the Bengals eyeing a trade? I literally see no point in them having Jeff Driskel unless they aren't feeling good about the o-line guarding Andy and think that he has a good chance of injury due to the hits he's been taking.
Why else would we have cut DeShawn Williams instead of Jeff Driskel, a 3rd-string QB.

They like his physical tools and they're holding him for an extended look. He's probably the biggest piece of evidence that McCarron will likely be shopped come March. It's a low risk move. The 53rd man rarely plays anyway.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

They don't want to be caught flat footed again and have to pass up on a great trade because there isn't a plan b. Unfortunately the Vikings/Oakland situation doesn't come around all that often and they won't get a mega offer again. Too little too late.
