Colts Sign Joe Flacco to One-Year Deal
Veteran QB to Backup Anthony Richardson
Deal Worth Up to $8.7 Million
The Indianapolis Colts have signed veteran quarterback Joe Flacco to a one-year contract worth up to $8.7 million, according to NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero, and Mike Garafolo.
Flacco, 39, is a 16-year NFL veteran who has spent the past two seasons with the Denver Broncos. He has a career passer rating of 84.1 and has thrown for over 40,000 yards and 224 touchdowns.
The Colts are hoping that Flacco can provide some stability behind 21-year-old Anthony Richardson, who is entering his second season in the NFL. Richardson started 17 games for the Colts in 2023 and threw for 3,840 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions.
Flacco's signing is a low-risk, high-reward move for the Colts. If he can stay healthy and productive, he could be a valuable asset to the team. However, if he struggles, the Colts can turn to Richardson without losing much ground.
