The Joe Flacco era with the Cleveland Browns was as short as it was unexpected.
Signed as a free agent late last season when the Browns were running out of viable options at quarterback with Deshaun Watson sidelined by a shoulder injury, Flacco threw for 1,616 yards and 13 touchdowns in five starts, helping the Browns earn a Wild Card spot in the NFL Playoffs.
It all came crashing down against the Houston Texans in the playoffs, however, as Flacco’s preponderance for turning the ball over finally caught up with him as the Texans returned two interceptions for touchdowns in the third quarter to seal the playoff loss for Cleveland.
