Payton Thorne: Waived by Cincinnati
The Bengals waived Thorne on Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Thorne joined the Bengals in late April as an undrafted free agent. The only preseason game he played in was against Indianapolis on Saturday, when he completed four of seven passes for 41 yards. Thorne will explore his next options assuming he clears waivers, which includes staying with the Bengals as a member of the practice squad.

Payton Thorne: Heading to Cincy
Thorne is slated to sign with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent, Chris Roling of USA Today reports.
The quarterback started for two years at Michigan State (2021 and 2022) and then for two more years after transferring to Auburn (2023 and 2024), making 47 collegiate starts in all over the past four campaigns. Last year at Auburn, Thorne recorded 2,713 yards and 21 touchdowns against nine interceptions. On the Cincinnati depth chart, Jake Browning has served as Joe Burrow's primary backup for the past two seasons, while incumbent third stringer Logan Woodside spent time with the team last year, though Thorne could perhaps compete with him for a roster or practice squad spot.
