Flacco stays in Cincinnati as Burrow’s veteran backup for 19th season

Joe Flacco, age 41, re-signed with the Cincinnati Bengals for his 19th NFL season, returning as the veteran backup behind Joe Burrow after a standout stretch filling in last season. Flacco said he loves the Bengals’ building and culture, and his decision was guided by gut feeling and positive relationships with Bengals staff and teammates. The move reunites him with coach Zac Taylor and other familiar figures, following a year that included a 470-yard game against the Bears and key performances that helped secure Burrow’s workload future as Cincinnati prioritizes experienced depth behind their star quarterback.

Mel Kiper's latest mock has the Bengals at No. 10 and selecting LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane, a pick meant to bolster the leaky pass defense but that could spell the end for DJ Turner or Dax Hill in Cincinnati.
