The Cleveland Browns are on to their fourth QB of the 2023 season as they have announced that Joe Flacco will start their week 13 game against the Browns.
“Joe’s a pro,” Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said. “I’ve been around pros, he’s right up there. He does his job. Very, very intelligent.”
BROWNS DESPERATE TO KEEP SEASON ALIVE
Joe Flacco, 38, will be the Browns fourth QB of the season after Deshaun Watson suffered a broken shoulder, and rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson suffered a concussion. Flacco played in four games for the Jets in 2022.
Flacco is clearly excited for the opportunity, “There’s so many things that add to it now, having young kids and feeling their excitement about it,” he said. “And when you are away, it puts things in perspective a little bit.”
WR Amari Cooper tried to put a positive spin on a bad situation. “He throws a very pretty ball,” Cooper said. “I don’t know if it’s intentional or what, but when he drops back and he lets it go, the whole motion is like poetry in motion. It looks good.”
At 7-4 Cleveland are tied for second spot in the AFC North and are currently in the wildcard spots.
