Jets QB Joe Flacco Expected to Start Week 1

According to Brian Costello of The New York Post, Jets backup quarterback Joe Flacco is expected to start Week 1’s contest against the Baltimore Ravens. With starter Zach Wilson a week removed from surgery to repair a torn meniscus, Flacco has been running New York’s first-team offense in practice and has been impressive by all accounts.

Costello writes, “All signs point to Flacco getting the start…On Thursday, Wilson exercised with the training staff on the side at the beginning of practice. He then watched team drills from a cart about 30 yards behind the play.
