Why not keep Andy as a backup?

NYG drafted Jones #6 with the intention of him being their future QB and held on to Eli and his $23 Mil cap. I think you're just dismissing this comparison because you took the time to put NO ONE in all caps and don't want it to go to waste. 

How do you know the Bengals aren't planning to start 2020 with Andy under center while Burrow gets up to speed because of the truncated Preseason? If Mikey says Dalton is our starter in 2020 the would it be comparable?  

New York had the cap space to make that happen. We don’t.

It’s really that simple. Unless you want to gut the team of depth. Like I said before, maybe they can work some magic, restructure his deal, etc. it just doesn’t seem likely.
