The Cincinnati Bengals are adding some experience and competition to their quarterback room. According to NFL Media, the Bengals are signing former third-round pick Desmond Ridder to compete behind Joe Burrow.

To make room for Ridder on the roster, the Bengals will release veteran quarterback Logan Woodside, according to a source. Woodside was in his second stint with the Bengals and was Cincinnati's third-string quarterback last season.

Desmond Ridder is reportedly heading back to the city of Cincinnati. The former UC Bearcats quarterback agreed to a deal with the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Ridder, who previously played with the Atlanta Falcons and Las Vegas Raiders, will provide further depth behind Joe Burrow.
