Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is excited about the prospect of catching passes from Joe Flacco, even though the veteran quarterback is 11 years removed from his career peak as Super Bowl MVP.
Flacco appears poised to make his first start with Cleveland on Sunday against the Rams following the loss of franchise QB Deshaun Watson to a season-ending shoulder injury and with backup Dorian Thompson-Robinson in concussion protocol.
“He looks good,” Cooper told reporters Thursday. “He throws a very pretty ball. 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,” Cooper quipped with a smile.
