CINCINNATI -- The Bengals will have at least one Palmer on the quarterback depth chart.
Backup quarterback Jordan Palmer, a restricted free agent, agreed to a contract extension Friday with the team.
His older brother, Carson Palmer, was placed on the reserve/did not report list after threatening to retire if he was not traded.
The Bengals drafted Andy Dalton in the second round and signed journeyman quarterback Bruce Gradkowski to compete for the starting job.
The team also announced new deals with three other restricted free agents, center Kyle Cook, guard Nate Livings, and tackle Dennis Roland.
They also agreed to terms with five exclusive-rights free agents, receiver Quan Cosby, long snapper/tight end Clark Harris, safety Tom Nelson, running back Cedric Peerman, and linebacker Dan Skuta.
The Bengals cut receiver Shay Hodge and kicker Clint Stitser.
