There has been much speculation on where Andy Dalton will sign this offseason following his release from the Cincinnati Bengals. Prior to deciding on a new team, the odds of where he will play next season have been released.
At this point in the offseason, there aren't any teams that are strictly looking for a starting quarterback. With that being said, Dalton will likely want to sign with a team that gives him the best chance to start again.
Upon his release, the New England Patriots are the odds-on favorites to sign the veteran QB this offseason. Of course, the Patriots are preparing for life after Tom Brady. However, New England seems to believe that Jarrett Stidham can be the successor to Brady.
Also, the Patriots haven't shown any interest in adding a veteran quarterback into the mix. Even though they've had a chance to sign Cam Newton or Jameis Winston, New England has remained content with Stidham and Brian Hoyer.
On the other hand, the Jacksonville Jaguars are the second-favorite team to land Dalton in free agency. Without a doubt, Jacksonville seems like the actual favorite to sign Dalton due to his prior experience with Jay Gruden. Gruden was hired as Jacksonville's new offensive coordinator earlier this offseason.
Lastly, the Pittsburgh Steelers are the third odds-on favorites to sign Dalton. With Dalton playing in the AFC North for nine seasons, the Steelers realize what Dalton is capable of. Plus, Pittsburgh needs to find a more reliable backup for Ben Roethlisberger.
Depending on what Dalton is looking for, there could be a few teams that express interest in signing him. While the Patriots are the odds-on favorites to sign him, the Jaguars seem like the ideal fit for Dalton.
