Bengals | Joe Flacco planning to start in Week 9 Sat Nov 1, 12:55 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) is planning to start Week 9's game against the Chicago Bears, barring an unforeseen development with the AC joint in his right shoulder, according to multiple sources.
| Footballguys view: Flacco is going to warm up before the game to test out his shoulder. He's planning on playing, but make sure to check when inactives are announced just in case. Jake Browning would start if Flacco can't go. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco to participate in pregame warmups Sat Nov 1, 09:57 AM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) will participate in pregame warmups Sunday, Nov. 2, to determine if he will play in Week 9's game versus the Chicago Bears.
| Footballguys view: It seems Flacco is a game-time decision even though he's not being classified as such. He will see how the shoulder feels in pregame warmups, and Flacco will start provided there are no setbacks. Jake Browning would start if Flacco and the team decide he's unable to play. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco questionable for Week 9 Fri Oct 31, 04:00 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) did not practice on Friday, Oct. 31, and is listed as questionable.
| Footballguys view: Flacco makes it sound like he intends to play, and we're ranking it as such. While Flacco is only in the discussion for streaming, his presence has a significant impact on the Bengals' weapons. Ja'Marr Chase has been an elite WR1 with Flacco, totaling 42 targets over their two games together. Tee Higgins has scored in back-to-back weeks. Chase Brown has vaulted himself from being a shaky RB3 to a high-end RB2. If Jake Browning starts, we will update projections for the Bengals' offense. For now, though, we're hoping and expecting to see Flacco out there against the Bears. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco listed as limited Thu Oct 30, 04:29 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) was limited during practice Thursday, Oct. 30.
| Footballguys view: Flacco is working to stay as the starter for the Bengals. This shoulder issue is problematic, and it does cast some doubt as to whether or not he's going to be out there in Week 9. Jake Browning will start if Flacco misses the game. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco leaning on Ja'Marr Chase Thu Oct 30, 01:17 PM
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase has recorded 53 targets in the three games that QB Joe Flacco has started, the most targets in a three-game span in the last 20 years.
| Footballguys view: In Week 8, Flacco targeted Chase a whopping 19 times but that was down from the 23 targets he had in Week 7. So long as Flacco is under center, he's going to keep feeding Chase - much to the delight of Fantasy GMs. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco does not practice Wed Oct 29, 05:24 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Oct. 29.
| Footballguys view: There's a chance the Bengals could be going back to Jake Browning at quarterback. That's not great Bob, so they'll do their best to see if Flacco can play through this injury (like he did in part of Week 8's game). Flacco is a seasoned veteran, so he doesn't need every practice rep to be ready. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco in question Wed Oct 29, 10:19 AM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) is up in the air for Week 9 with a sprained right AC joint, according to head coach Zac Taylor.
| Footballguys view: Flacco was banged up in Week 8, left briefly during the game, but he came back to finish the contest. He's a seasoned veteran, so Flacco does not have to get every practice rep this week. Let's see what he can do on Friday at the latest. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco day-to-day with a sore shoulder Mon Oct 27, 03:24 PM
Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco did not miss any snaps after briefly going into the locker room in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss to the Jets, but it looks like he will be on the team's injury report this week. Head coach Zac Taylor said at a Monday press conference that Flacco is day-to-day with a shoulder injury.
| Footballguys view: Flacco left the field briefly after being sacked, but returned for the final offensive possession of the game and said he was feeling fine after the game. "I had something happen, wasn't feeling 100 percent," Flacco said. "Just trying to make sure something was right . . . Landed a little awkward. I feel good right now." Jake Browning started three games before the Bengals traded for Flacco and was warming up before Flacco returned to the field on Sunday. He would be in line to start against the Bears if Flacco isn't good to go in Week 9. |

Bengals | Chase Brown finds end zone for first time since Week 1 Sun Oct 26, 09:21 PM
Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown ran 12 times for 73 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 32 yards and another score in Week 8 against the New York Jets.
| Footballguys view: It's a second-straight strong showing for Brown, who ran the ball 11 times for 108 yards in Week 7. Even with Samaje Perine's playing time increasing (he ran nine times for 94 yards and a touchdown), Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke notes that Brown was still the leader on early downs. With a schedule that gets easier down the stretch (starting with the Bears in Week 9), managers with Brown on their rosters can expect the higher-level production to continue. |

Bengals | Joe Flacco productive in loss to Jets Sun Oct 26, 09:08 PM
Joe Flacco had the Bengals offense humming for three and a half quarters, leading a unit that found points on six of its first eight possessions to maintain a two-score lead throughout a game in which the Jets hung around thanks to Cincinnati's defensive failures. Flacco's final three passes went incomplete for a turnover on downs at midfield, souring an otherwise fine afternoon (21-of-34 for 223 passing yards and two TDs; one rushing TD) that opened up a fruitful ground attack (181 yards).
| Footballguys view: Cincinnati will regret this 39-38 loss if they fall a game short of making the postseason, but Flacco was QB4 through Sunday's late-afternoon window. With his 1-yard scoring run, Flacco became the seventh player over the age of 40 to score a touchdown, joining Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Doug Flutie, Warren Moon, Jerry Rice, and Vinny Testaverde. Flacco also became the oldest player to score a TD in Bengals history, surpassing Terrell Owens (36). Flacco briefly went to the locker room to have a shoulder injury checked, but he didn't miss any snaps. The Bengals play Chicago in Week 9. |
