More than any other team in the league, the Cleveland Browns have started five different signal-callers this season. So far, the New York Jets have four starts. Just nine teams—the Buffalo Bills, Tampa Bay Bucs, Washington Commanders, Dallas Cowboys, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, and New Orleans Saints—have started every game of their first 17 games, according to Sporting News.

Though he’s 38, Flacco has shown he still has something left in the tank, throwing for 1,618 yards, 13 touchdowns and eight interceptions in his five starts, including four straight games with 300 or more yards and three games with three touchdown passes. Flacco could stick around in Cleveland as Plan B to Deshaun Watson in 2024 or he could start for a team breaking in a rookie QB.

Despite being 38 years old, Flacco has demonstrated that he still has it. In his five starts, he has thrown for 1,618 yards, 13 touchdowns, and eight interceptions, including three games with three touchdown passes and four straight games with 300 yards or more. In 2024, Flacco might remain in Cleveland as Deshaun Watson’s backup, or he might start for a team that is acclimating a rookie quarterback to the position.

When Anthony Richardson went down with a season-ending shoulder injury in Week 5, not many expected the Colts to ride Minshew to a 9-7 record with a shot at not only making the playoffs but also winning the AFC South.

Mills, who is only 25 years old, has two years of starting experience under his belt and his overall numbers aren’t terrible – 5,955 yards, 35 touchdowns, 25 interceptions, 62.8 completion percentage. It’s possible a team like the Broncos, Falcons or Vikings could give him a shot for a year or two while they try to figure out a more long-term solution at the position.

Prior to their Week 18 matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday night, the Houston Texans made their final injury report public. The Texans have ruled out defensive lineman Jonathan Greenard (ankle) and wide receiver Noah Brown (back) for their final 2023 regular season game.
