Keith Wenning

The Bengals need a backup quarterback while Andy Dalton is sidelined with a thumb injury, so the team will turn to Wenning, who will be next in line if something happens to AJ McCarron. McCarron makes his first start against the 30th ranked defense in the San Francisco 49ers so there’s a strong chance the Bengals rely on the run game of Jeremy Hill and Gio Bernard and not the right arm of the former Alabama quarterback.

Wenning is reportedly being promoted to the active roster to be the back-up quarterback to A.J. McCarron, so he is not fantasy relevant. Jonathan Impemba has suggested that fantasy owners in seasonal leagues should try to pick-up Ryan Fitzpatrick, Kirk Cousins or Alex Smith if you are desperate for a quarterback.

Wenning was signed as depth at the quarterback position for the Bengals. He spent last year on the Ravens' practice squad, but they deemed him expendable, releasing him in May. He will have zero fantasy impact in 2015.

These moves are just a way of trying to get their training camp and practice squads in order for over the offseason, so the team scouts and decision makers can fully focus on the bigger signings once free agency and the draft season begin.
