Bengals Have Confidence with Flacco at Quarterback. Now They Need to Work on Quicker Starts
The Bengals contacted multiple teams about quarterbacks including retired Derek Carr before trading a fifth-round pick for Joe Flacco to replace injured starter Joe Burrow.
- Last week the Cincinnati Bengals traded for veteran quarterback Joe Flacco in a Day 3 pick-swap exchange with the Cleveland Browns after canvassing the league, NFL reporters said.
- After Joe Burrow suffered a Grade 3 turf toe, Jake Browning struggled in relief, and the Cincinnati Bengals lost three straight games, increasing urgency to find a new quarterback.
- Ian Rapoport reported the Bengals called teams about multiple quarterbacks, including retired Derek Carr, who remains on the New Orleans Saints' retired list and would require a trade for his rights.
- Joe Flacco is expected to start on Sunday despite limited practice with the Cincinnati Bengals, aiming to stabilize the offense against the Green Bay Packers.
- With less than a month to the trade deadline, salary-cap constraints limited Cincinnati from pursuing pricier veterans, while Adam Schefter predicted at least another dozen deals before Nov. 4.
