"CINCINNATI -- Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco is in jeopardy of missing Sunday's game against the Bears because of the sprained AC joint in his throwing shoulder, coach Zac Taylor said Wednesday. Flacco will not practice Wednesday, Taylor said, as the Bengals evaluate their options. "We'll see what we can potentially get out of him tomorrow," Taylor said. "We'll just work through the week. I think right now it's probably at 50-50 on what will end up [happening] on Sunday.""
"Flacco suffered the injury late in this past Sunday's 39-38 loss to the New York Jets. He went to the locker room momentarily but returned to finish the game. If Flacco can't play, the Bengals will go back to Jake Browning. He started three games this season after Joe Burrow suffered a turf toe injury in Week 2. However, Browning struggled in that stint, which prompted the Bengals (3-5) to acquire Flacco from the Cleveland Browns via trade."
Joe Flacco is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears after spraining the AC joint in his throwing shoulder. He did not practice Wednesday as the Bengals evaluate options and coach Zac Taylor called his availability about 50-50 for Sunday. Flacco suffered the injury late in the 39-38 loss to the New York Jets but briefly returned to finish the game. If unavailable, Cincinnati would turn to Jake Browning, who started three games earlier this season and struggled. In three games with the Bengals, Flacco has completed 64.3% of passes for 784 yards, seven touchdowns and no interceptions.
