Chargers' Jake Browning: Catches on with Bolts
The Chargers signed Browning to the practice squad Tuesday, Noah Furtado of The Athletic reports.
Trey Lance (groin) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, so DJ Uiagalelei served as the Chargers' QB2 role behind Justin Herbert for Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Broncos. The Chargers have opted to bring in a more seasoned veteran in Browning, who appeared in 17 regular-season games (10 starts) with the Bengals between 2023 and 2025, during which he completed 68.5 percent of passes for 2,707 yards, 18 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. Browning will open his Chargers tenure on the practice squad, although he could supplant Uiagalelei as the backup behind Herbert as soon as this Sunday against the Chiefs.

Jake Browning: Cut by Buccaneers
Browning has been cut by Tampa Bay, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
After signing with Tampa Bay in March, Browning had been expected to back up Baker Mayfield and recently returned to practice after a back injury. Browning had a quiet preseason, completing 10 of 15 passes for 86 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. Browning's release means Tampa Bay will move forward with undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels as the team's No. 2 QB behind Mayfield.

Buccaneers' Jake Browning: Back at practice
Browning (back) practiced Monday after missing Friday's preseason game against the Jets, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The quarterback strained his back Wednesday during a joint practice with the Jets and then had to sit out of the preseason opener. Now that he has returned, Browning should slide back into his spot as Baker Mayfield's primary backup. The fourth-year pro is in his first year with the Bucs after spending his first three seasons with Cincinnati.

Buccaneers' Jake Browning: Not participating in Friday's contest
Browning (back) will not participate in Friday's preseason opener against the Jets, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Browning strained his back during Wednesday's joint practice with the Jets. The quarterback is currently the primary backup to Baker Mayfield, so any injury will likely shut him down for an extended period of the preseason until it is deemed completely safe for him to return. In Browning's absence, Connor Bazelak and Jalon Daniels will split reps at quarterback as they compete for the No. 3 role.

Buccaneers' Jake Browning: Still not ruled out for Friday
Coach Todd Bowles said Wednesday that Browning (back) could still play in Friday's preseason game against the Jets, Jeff Dubrof of WFLA News Channel 8 reports.
Browning strained his back during Tuesday's joint practice with the Jets, but there's apparently still a chance he could suit up for the Buccaneers' preseason opener. If he can't though, Connor Bazelak would figure to be Tampa Bay's starting signal caller Friday.

Buccaneers' Jake Browning: May not play Friday
Browning may not play in Friday's preseason game against the Jets due to a back injury, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
With Baker Mayfield not scheduled to play Friday, Browning was slated to serve as the team's starter, with Connor Bazelak and Jalon Daniels also in the mix for reps. However, Browning strained his back toward the tail end of Tuesday's joint practice with the Jets, which puts him in jeopardy of missing Friday's preseason opener.

Buccaneers' Jake Browning: Backing up the Bucs
Browning plans to sign a one-year deal with the Buccaneers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
With starting quarterback Baker Mayfield taking quite a few hits last year, the Bucs are looking to bring in a tested backup. Browning played more than one offensive snap in four games for the Bengals during the 2025 season, totaling 757 passing yards and 6:8 TD:INT. The quarterback has started 10 games in his NFL career for a 4-6 record, adding a fifth win in Week 2 of the 2025 season when he passed 32 times against the Jaguars after Joe Burrow went down with a toe injury.

Per Fowler, the Bengals are open to bringing Browning back, though Cincinnati benched Browning in favor of Joe Flacco while Joe Burrow was recovering from a toe injury during the 2025 season.
