Per Wiretap, Bengals release Johnson, acquire Fitzpatrick

[PhilipNelsonFan]

Your thoughts? Personally, I like this move. Fitzpatrick had a couple starts for the Rams and did a respectable if shaky job; he does have a 300-yard passing game in his career. We knew that Doug Johnson was backup in name only and wouldn't get it done on the field, so it's a sensible upgrade. The novelty of the Harvard QB isn't lost on me but Fitzpatrick seems to actually have football skills.
