BEREA, Ohio — Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco has no hard feelings against the New York Jets, who didn’t re-sign him after last season and also didn’t bring him back after Aaron Rodgers suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in this season’s opener.

Flacco and the Browns host the Jets on Thursday night with a chance to clinch the team’s first postseason appearance since 2020.

“I enjoyed my time while I was there, and it is what it is,” said Flacco, who spent parts of three seasons with the Jets. “I’m happy to be where I am, that’s for sure.”

Flacco has started the last four games for the Browns, winning three. Cleveland (10-5) is all alone at the 5 seed in the playoff picture with a better than 99% chance to make the postseason, according to ESPN’s Football Power Index.

Over the last four weeks, Flacco has thrown for more yards (1,307) than any other NFL quarterback. He’s also tossed 10 touchdown passes, tied with the Los Angeles Rams’ Matthew Stafford and San Francisco 49ers’ Brock Purdy for the most during that span.

Team* QBs Final W-L
1984 Bears 5 10-6
2023 Browns 4 ?
2003 Broncos 4 10-6
1991 Eagles 4 10-6
1988 Browns 4 10-6
1987 Bears 4 11-4
1986 Bears 4 14-2

Flacco went unsigned this season until Cleveland quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered a season-ending shoulder injury. Flacco worked out for the Browns on Nov. 17 and was signed to their practice squad three days later.

Last season, Flacco started four games for the Jets, including a 31-30 win in Week 2 in Cleveland. In that game, Flacco threw four touchdown passes, including two in the final two minutes to pull off a shocking comeback, which he called the “craziest finish” of his career.

But he wouldn’t throw another touchdown until joining the Browns this season, as New York turned to Zach Wilson, the 2021 No. 2 draft pick, at quarterback.

Kirk Cousins 1,387 Vikings
Cam Newton 1,386 Panthers
Drew Bledsoe 1,345 Bills
Joe Flacco 1,307 Browns

“There’s 32 teams in the NFL. They’re just another one,” Flacco said. “I got a lot of guys over there I really respect and had an awesome few years in that locker room. So a lot of respect for those guys.”

Flacco will have a new backup quarterback the rest of the way, as the Browns placed rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip) on injured reserve Tuesday. That means PJ Walker, who started two games earlier this season, will again be Cleveland’s No. 2 quarterback.
