The Colts (7-5) are also relying on their own backup quarterback to keep their playoff hopes alive, with Gardner Minshew taking over for Anthony Richardson (shoulder). The Colts are a 1-point favorite on the road according to the latest Week 14 NFL spreads according to the SportsLine consensus. Can the Browning and Bengals repeat that success against the Colts and come through for anyone backing them in the latest NFL odds? The 27-year-old completed 32 of 37 passes (86.5%) for 354 yards and a touchdown in a thrilling 34-31 overtime win over the Jaguars last week on Monday Night Football.
Many expected the Bengals' postseason aspirations to crumble after Joe Burrow (wrist) was injured against the Ravens in Week 11, but Browning may be changing opinions.
Browning went undrafted and after spending time on the Vikings practice squad, he was signed to the Bengals practice squad in 2021.
Bengals quarterback Jake Browning was one of the biggest surprises last week.
