“Is what it is,” Flacco told reporters when asked why New York did not bring him back. “I’m definitely delighted to be where I am. I admire several of the men in that locker room. The only reason that came to mind was when somebody asked, ‘Hey, are the Jets gonna contact you?’

Flacco is 3-1 as a starter in Cleveland’s previous four games and has passed for more yards (1,307) than any other quarterback during that span. Flacco has also thrown for 10 touchdowns, tying Matthew Stafford and Brock Purdy for the most during that time.
