The Cincinnati Bengals drafted Alabama quarterback A.J. McCarron immediately creating a bit of a quarterback controversy with Andy Dalton. McCarron is a proven leader, and with Dalton entering his final year under his current contract it has caused some speculation that they could’ve taken McCarron to replace Dalton.
Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson looked to put an end to those rumors early on.
Hue Jackson’s first words: “This isn’t about Andy Dalton.”

And incase you thought it might have something to do with McCarron’s girlfriend Katherine Webb, he put those rumors to bed too.
Hue: This isn’t about his girlfriend either.

But he went back to McCarron and Dalton controversy saying that Dalton is still the Bengals’ quarterback.
Hue: He will not take practice reps from Dalton. He will have to work more before and after practice.

Hue: Andy Dalton is our QB. We stand behind him 100%.
