While his time in Cleveland was short, Joe Flacco certainly left his mark. The Browns recently expressed their appreciation for Flacco, who signed with the Indianapolis Colts earlier this offseason. 

Flacco was at home last season before the Browns reached out to him after injuries decimated the their quarterback position. He was signed to Cleveland’s practice squad on Nov. 20 and was inserted into the starting lineup in Week 13. Flacco remained in the starting lineup for the remainder of the year and played an integral role in the Browns making the playoffs. 

“Joe, it was ,” the Browns wrote on X. “You brought such a sense of joy and genuine excitement to this team game in and game out. We were proud to have you in the orange and brown and we wish you nothing but the best in Indianapolis.”

It’s safe to say that both the Browns and Flacco benefitted from his short time in Cleveland. The Browns made the playoffs, while Flacco played well enough to win NFL Comeback Player of the Year. His play last season also led to his current opportunity in Indianapolis.
