Joe Flacco had a resurgent 2023 season, leading the Browns to the playoffs. Although he will be the Colts backup in 2024, he admitted he was 'surprised' he's not back in Cleveland.

Joe Flacco won a Super Bowl a little more than a decade ago with the Baltimore Ravens. His 11-year run with the Ravens came to an end after the 2018 season. He has become somewhat of a journeyman quarterback in the years since. Last offseason, every NFL team passed on the opportunity to sign Flacco. But, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered a season-ending injury in November and the team decided to reach out to Flacco.

resurgent Flacco went on to lift the Browns to a playoff berth, and he was later named the 2023 NFL Comeback Player of the Year. Despite his strong play down the stretch last year, Flacco will start the upcoming 2024 season with the Indianapolis Colts. He is expected to backup second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson.
