Quarterback Joe Flacco is rejoining the Cleveland Browns on a reported one-year, $4 million contract.

The Browns confirmed the agreement Friday and Flacco’s agent, Joe Linta, confirmed the figures to ESPN.

Flacco, 40, spent the 2024 season with the Indianapolis Colts after earning NFL Comeback Player of the Year honors with the Browns in 2023.

Flacco, who also met with the Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason, can earn up to $13 million with incentives, per his agent.

A Super Bowl XLVII MVP with Baltimore, Flacco played his first 11 seasons with the Ravens (2008-18) before moving on to the Denver Broncos (2019), New York Jets (2020-22), Browns and Colts.

Heading into his 18th season, Flacco ranks 12th in NFL history in pass completions (4,166), 14th in attempts (6,751), 18th in yards (45,697) and tied for 22nd in passing touchdowns (257). His overall record is 105-86, including a 4-1 mark with the Browns in 2023.

Flacco joins a depth chart in Cleveland that includes the injured Deshaun Watson (Achilles) and newcomer Kenny Pickett, who won a Super Bowl with the Philadelphia Eagles last season. Watson could miss most or all of the 2025 season.

The Browns also have the No. 2 overall pick in this month’s draft and have met with top prospects Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders, Jalen Milroe and Jaxson Dart, among others.
