Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco wants to stay around the NFL for another season. It appears he is certain about where he’d prefer it be.
Flacco appeared on SiriusXM NFL Radio this week and attempted to clear the air on the rumor mill. Pro Football Talk said that his first choice is the Cleveland Browns. Flacco didn’t deny this.
“I can tell you that, all things equal, Cleveland is definitely the place where I’d feel best about,” the former Super Bowl Champion said via PFT. “Now, then you have to get into the world of, is someone going to give me a chance to play? And all the different things that go into that. But I can’t help bu thave a special feeling about Cleveland,” he added.
Flacco joined the Browns last season while the team dealt with a string of injury issues. They played numerous quarterbacks during the season, including Deshaun Watson and P.J. Walker, among others, including Flacco. He helped bring the team to the NFL Playoffs, but the Houston Texans unceremoniously bounced them. Flacco also played himself into winning the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award for his 2023 contributions.
We might be long removed from his “ELITE” days, but Flacco doesn’t sound like someone who wants to give it all up yet. The NFL world had much to say.
He’s really pushing this huh? Must not have much interest from other teams https://t.co/iM5kAaNXb8

Joe Flacco played well enough to have a starting opportunity with a team next year.
The fact that he prefers to stay in Cleveland without any guarantee of playing time speaks to just how far the Browns organization has come. 📈📈📈 pic.twitter.com/qFWp42jKZC

Weird….a 39 yr old QB with no market. Happy to have him back. But just shows you that the NFL doesn’t want a 39yr old bridge QB. https://t.co/te32DTPvZI
