\u201cBMore Football Podcast\u201d<\/a> that “it would feel strange” to wear a Steelers jersey, but he didn’t rule it out.<\/p>\n“There’s something about the Steelers that seems a little bit different just because they were our rival for so many years,” Flacco said, “but at the end of the day, I play football because I love it. It is a job of mine. If somebody is hiring me, I think that is a pretty big deal.<\/p>\n
“You can’t necessarily let your personal feelings on an organization just from an outsider get in the way of a professional decision.”<\/p>\n
Flacco, who turned 41 last week, hopes to be playing somewhere next season, which would be his 19th in the NFL.<\/p>\n
“You do think about one day being done, but at the same time, year to year, you don’t really think about that,” Flacco said. “You’re just like, ‘Oh, offseason. Time to work out and get ready for the next season.’ And I think that for the most part, my head is still in that space.”<\/p>\n
Flacco also shared his feelings about the Ravens parting ways with John Harbaugh. Flacco was the Ravens’ first-round pick in 2008, the same year Harbaugh was hired as head coach. They spent 11 seasons and won Super Bowl XLVII together.<\/p>\n
“I think when you’re around this league as long as everybody here has been, I don’t know if you’re shocked by anything, but I was definitely surprised,” Flacco said. “I think the Giants are getting one hell of a coach.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Joe Flacco Discusses His Future, Possibility of Playing for Steelers, John Harbaugh’s Departure The Pittsburgh Steelers are the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":696593,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[7,781,786,20472,888,49,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-696592","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-general","10":"tag-homepage-centerpiece","11":"tag-inline-news","12":"tag-late-for-work","13":"tag-ncaa","14":"tag-ncaa-football"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115939486240127487","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/696592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=696592"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/696592\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/696593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=696592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=696592"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=696592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
