Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco’s 18th NFL season will come to a close Sunday when the Bengals take on the Browns at home. He began the season as Cleveland’s starting QB, but he was dealt to Cincinnati in October to help lead the way as Joe Burrow recovered from a toe injury.
Flacco threw for 290 yards for the Browns in their Week 1 loss to the Bengals. He’ll partake in the same matchup Sunday, just on the other sideline as Burrow’s backup. He went just 1–5 in six starts for Cincinnati this season, but he remains open to a return to the Bengals next year as he aims to find his next opportunity. Flacco, who turns 41 on Jan. 16, hopes to be back on the field somewhere next year for a potential 19th season.
