CINCINNATI (WXIX) – Quarterback Joe Flacco has agreed to a 1-year deal to stay with the Bengals.
Sources tell ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler the deal is worth $6 million with a maximum value of $9 million with incentives.
The Bengals acquired Flacco in trade with the Cleveland Browns in October 2025.
In addition to Flacco, the Bengals will get a 6th round draft pick from the Browns.
Cincinnati is sending a 5th round pick to Cleveland in exchange.
Flacco, 41, was named Bengals starting quarterback that same month.
Prior to that, Jake Browning was in the quarterback slot after Joe Burrow suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury in a September 2025 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
