Browns' Joe Flacco to showcase work ethic through QB battle: Being mentor is 'not the main focus'

Our Summary

Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco is preparing for his second stint with the team, focusing on competing rather than just mentoring young quarterbacks. Entering his 18th NFL season, Flacco emphasizes leading by example. With Deshaun Watson possibly sidelined for the 2025 season due to an Achilles injury, Flacco aims to secure the starting role amidst competition from Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders. The Browns signed Flacco to a one-year, $4 million deal, recalling his successful history with the team. Head coach Kevin Stefanski appreciates Flacco's experience, noting he still performs at a high level. Flacco, a former Super Bowl MVP, is set to prove his worth during training camp and the preseason.
