CINCINNATI -- The Bengals have released second-string quarterback J.T. O'Sullivan, who struggled during the preseason.

O'Sullivan completed only 35 of 60 passes for 396 yards with two interceptions and five sacks during five preseason games, working with the Bengals' second-string players. He appeared in only three games last season as Carson Palmer's backup.

Palmer's younger brother, Jordan, is the third-string quarterback.

The Bengals replaced O'Sullivan -- at least temporarily -- by claiming quarterback Dan LeFevour off waivers from Chicago on Sunday.

LeFevour was a sixth-round pick from Central Michigan, where he threw for more than 12,000 yards and ran for more than 2,500 during his career.

LeFevour's coach at Central Michigan was Butch Jones, who is in his first season at the University of Cincinnati.

Good now maybe JohnKirk will leave for a Cincy message board.

MY GUY!!! Im surprised Cincy would cut a veteran like JT to replace him with a rookie like Lefevour. Seems kinda risky given Carson is injury prone. Jordan is horrible & shouldn't even be in the NFL.

Mike Martz Thinks J.T. O'Sullivan Can Be the Best Quarterback He's Ever Coached

"One more item about Martz and O'Sullivan, Martz told the broadcast team of Kenny Albert and Daryl Johnston that O'Sullivan sees the field like Warner and has the quick release of Marc Bulger. Then he said that O'Sullivan could be the best quarterback he ever coached."
