McCarron started the six games in Dalton's absence, passing for 1,504 yards, 5 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions, before Dalton returned; Tolzien appeared in one mop-up role in week 17. Following a 0-2 start in 2017, the Bengals fired on September 15, promoting Lazor to interim for the remaining 14 games.

He prioritized quarterback competition, expressing excitement over the open battle between Trubisky and Foles in 2020 training camp, with a heightened focus on competitive, game-like practice drills to determine the starter. The approach also centered on a ground-attack focus, adapting to Nagy's vision of a run-heavy scheme to control games and support the passing game.
