Flacco got a one-year contract from the Browns, who brought in the veteran after losing starter Deshaun Watson for the season.
After the Cleveland Browns lost their starting quarterback, Deshaun Watson, for the season due to a right shoulder injury, they signed veteran quarterback Joe Flacco in an emergency move. Flacco has officially signed a one-year deal with the Browns worth $4.05 million, which includes incentives with a playoff run and a Super Bowl win.
The Browns hope Flacco’s experience and skills will help them successfully navigate the remainder of the season. The 38-year-old quarterback boasts an impressive record, winning a Super Bowl MVP award and making multiple playoff appearances. Flacco has been a valuable asset for the Browns, who have been plagued by injuries but are still in the running for the playoffs.
In his first game at home, Flacco led the Browns to victory against the Jaguars. With this win, Cleveland joined a select group of only seven teams in the Super Bowl era to have recorded wins with four different quarterbacks in a single season.
