Joe Flacco Denied Contract Offers from Multiple Teams Last Week to Stay with Browns

Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco has settled in nicely with the Cleveland Browns, and he doesn't have any desire to go elsewhere.

NBC Sports' Peter King reported on Monday that Flacco's agent said that when the 38-year-old was placed on the Browns practice squad for roster management purposes, "two or three" teams inquired about signing him last week. However, Flacco was completely uninterested in a change of scenery.

"Joe didn't want to hear it," his agent Joe Linta said. "He absolutely wanted to stay in Cleveland. He loves the team. He really gets along well with the coach.
