On Wednesday evening, it was reported that Joe Flacco had injured his back and his return time-table was uncertain. Various reporters and insiders had different reports on the severity of the injury.
However, during Thursday’s press-conference, John Harbaugh provided some updates about Flacco’s injury. Harbaugh said, “He went and saw the back specialist, they are recommending about a week of rest and they say that should take care of it.” Harbaugh did allude to the fact that it is a back injury and therefore rather unpredictable. It seems Baltimore feels the injury is not serious and he should be ready to go as early as next week.
