The Cleveland Browns are turning to veteran quarterback Joe Flacco for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.
When Flacco takes the field at SoFi Stadium, he will be the fourth quarterback to start a game for the Browns this season, following Deshaun Watson (on injured reserve with a broken shoulder), P.J. Walker (sidelined by continued ineffectiveness) and rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson.
A big part of why the Browns are down to Flacco, who was at home all season until the Browns gave him a call in late November, is because Thompson-Robinson spent the week in the league-mandate concussion protocol instead of on the practice field preparing for the Rams.
