The Bengals made a big trade this week, sending a late-round draft pick to the Browns in exchange for Joe Flacco and another late-round pick. It was a desperation move made by a team built to win now after Jake Browning failed to lead the team to a single win as starter in relief of Joe Burrow, who is out for the foreseeable future with a turf toe injury. One of the most impacted parties will be superstar wideout Ja'Marr Chase, who gave his first comments on the Flacco acquisition today.
Speaking to media on Thursday ahead of a Sunday afternoon matchup with the Packers, Chase said he appreciates that the team is pushing to make something happen this year and had high praise for Flacco.
