The Cleveland Browns have promoted quarterback Joe Flacco and cornerback A.J. Green III from the practice squad to the active roster. Flacco, entering his 16th NFL season, is poised to start for the Browns as rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson is in concussion protocol after last week’s game. Flacco, known for his Super Bowl MVP performance with the Ravens, joined the Browns’ practice squad on Nov. 20.
In addition, cornerback Denzel Ward’s absence due to a shoulder injury has led to the elevation of A.J. Green III from the practice squad. Green, in his third NFL season out of Oklahoma State, has played 33 games with the Browns since signing as an undrafted free agent in 2020. He has recorded 26 tackles and two interceptions in his career, appearing in two games for Cleveland this season.
Both Flacco and Green are set to contribute as the Browns face the Rams at 4:25 p.m. EST on Sunday, December 3.
