Overview
- Joe Flacco, acquired this week from the Browns, will start Sunday at Lambeau Field in his Bengals debut.
- Multiple reports say All-Pro receiver Ja’Marr Chase, listed as questionable with an illness, is expected to play versus Green Bay.
- Cincinnati moved for Flacco after Joe Burrow went on injured reserve and Jake Browning struggled with turnovers and production.
- Reporting indicates the Bengals canvassed the market before the trade, inquiring about Davis Mills, Sam Howell and even retired Derek Carr due to cap and contract constraints.
- Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Flacco could become the first Super Bowl-era QB to start and beat the same opponent for two different teams in one season if he tops the Packers again.
