Joe Flacco | Fantasy Outlook
Premium Veteran Backup Offers Cheap Superflex Security in Cincinnati
Joe Flacco enters his 19th NFL season as the primary backup for the Cincinnati Bengals, operating directly behind starter Joe Burrow. At 41 years old, Flacco's vast experience makes him one of the league's most secure contingency options, sitting ahead of Josh Johnson on the depth chart. While he won't carry standalone value, he is a vital insurance policy.
Our models project a limited role for Flacco, estimating just 60 pass attempts for 388 yards and three touchdowns. However, as he showed in 2025 with Cleveland—where he threw for 2,662 yards and 16 touchdowns in 14 appearances—he can still deliver fantasy-relevant production if called upon.
Flacco's draft stock has steadily climbed over the past month, with his ADP rising from pick 829 to 346. This surging market interest shows that managers in deep Superflex formats are buying into his premium handcuff appeal, making him a logical late-round stash at his current cost.
