In a surprising turn of events, Joe Flacco is poised to take the reins as the Cleveland Browns' starting quarterback this weekend. Head coach Kevin Stefanski announced during a press conference on Wednesday that Flacco will be the No. 2 quarterback on the team's depth chart for Week 13, potentially leading him to assume the No. 1 position due to Dorian Thompson-Robinson's concussion.

Thompson-Robinson, who suffered the concussion during last Sunday's game, will not participate in any practice activities this week. With his absence, the Browns are looking to Flacco to step up and deliver a strong performance against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

Flacco, who recently joined the Browns' practice squad a little over a week ago, brings a wealth of experience to the team. Last season, he played for the New York Jets, with his last game taking place in Week 18. Now, Flacco is ready to don the Browns' jersey and lead the team to victory.

The Browns faced a setback when Thompson-Robinson was ruled out due to his concussion, but they have faith in Flacco's abilities to steady the ship. With his strong arm and ability to make accurate throws, Flacco will aim to exploit the Rams' defense and help the Browns secure a crucial win.

The backup quarterback position will likely be filled by P.J. Walker, who stepped in for Thompson-Robinson during the loss to the Denver Broncos. However, whether Walker will serve as Flacco's backup or take on the role of the team's third quarterback for Week 13 remains to be seen.

The Browns are counting on Flacco to quickly adjust to the team's offensive scheme and build chemistry with his new teammates in a short span of time. His experience and leadership on the field will be vital for the Browns' offensive success against a tough Rams defense.

As Sunday's game approaches, all eyes will be on Joe Flacco as he takes the field in a Cleveland Browns uniform for the first time. The team and its fans are hopeful that his skill and experience will be the key to a much-needed victory against the Rams.
