Joe Flacco News

Bengals Waiting for Joe Flacco?

Tuesday, March 17, 4:18 PM

The Athletic's Paul Dehner Jr. believes that when the Cincinnati Bengals signed 14-team NFL legend Josh Johnson over the weekend, it "sent a clear message" that they "plan on waiting" for free-agent quarterback Joe Flacco. The 41-year-old veteran will return for a 19th season in the NFL, but he's prioritizing signing with a team that will allow him to start in Week 1 of the regular season this fall. At this point, that's unlikely to happen, but Flacco has also stated that he'd have interest in returning to Cincinnati as Joe Burrow's backup if he can't find an opportunity to compete for a starting job. The Bengals essentially bought time to wait Flacco out by signing Johnson. Flacco put up some impressive single-game numbers for Cincy last year when Burrow was dealing with a toe injury, and he finished with 2,479 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in 13 games (10 starts) with the Bengals and Browns. Despite his age, Flacco would be back on the superflex and streaming radar in fantasy if he re-signs with the Bengals and Burrow gets injured again in 2026.

Will Levis News

Titans Gauging Will Levis' Trade Market

Sunday, March 1, 7:54 AM

The Tennessee Titans are "seeing if there's interest and whether they can get trade value out of" quarterback Will Levis (shoulder), according to Dan Graziano of ESPN. Levis, who missed all of the 2025 season after having right-shoulder surgery, is heading into the final year of his four-year, $9.54 million contract that he signed in July of 2023. The 26-year-old has no clear path to returning to starting QB duties in Tennessee after the club drafted Cameron Ward with the first overall pick last April. Levis was drafted by the Titans' previous front office and coaching staff, so they don't have much invested in him. If his shoulder injury is a thing of the past, QB-needy NFL teams could have some interest in bringing Levis on board, at least as a QB2 option for depth. The former second-rounder in 2023 out of Kentucky displayed questionable decision-making and mostly struggled in his 21 starts in two seasons, throwing for 3,899 yards, 21 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions.
