Another veteran quarterback is on the market.
The Denver Broncos released Joe Flacco on Thursday with a failed physical designation. Flacco, 35, lasted one year in Denver and landed on injured reserve with a neck injury.
Flacco’s time with the Broncos was largely uneventful; he started eight games in which Denver went 2-6. His most notable moment happened when he called out offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello for conservative play-calling in a loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Flacco was shut down due to his neck injury just a few days later.
The Broncos had acquired Flacco from the Baltimore Ravens last offseason in hopes he could provide stability at the quarterback position, which they’ve struggled to have since Peyton Manning retired in 2016.
