Les Vikings sont sur le point de récupérer leur intérêt dans le Super Bowl à 120 millions de dollars………..
Last October, the Minnesota Vikings were a trade-deadline target for Joe Flacco, and if Kirk Cousins leaves next week, they are considered a candidate to pursue the Super Bowl veteran quarterback in free agency.
Tony Grossi from ESPN Cleveland talked about Flacco’s return to the Cleveland Browns after guiding Cleveland to an unexpected playoff appearance, winning four of his five starts to close the season.
Alors que les fans de Brown étaient ravis que Flacco revienne en tant que remplaçant à la place de Deshaun Watson la prochaine saison, Grossi a ralenti Flacco, qui a déclaré qu’il était toujours capable d’être un starter après 16 ans dans la league.
I believe Flacco would return to the Browns if he finds a better chance to play.
Les Vikings ont probablement pris intérêt à Flacco après la chute du voyage de Josh Dobbs en décembre. Before the team’s Week 13 bye, Dobbs won his first two starts for the Vikings before turning the ball over six times in back-to-back losses.
Following Dorian Thompson-Robinson’s concussion in Week 12 that forced him to decline the Vikings’ offer to sign him off the Browns practice squad, Flacco probably saw his opening to start.
Flacco avait auparavant une curiosité pour les Vikings.
Selon Darren Wolfson de KSTP, Flacco contacted the Vikings after Cousins went down with an Achilles injury that ended the season on October 29. He expressed his interest in joining the team.
“He wanted to be here”, dit Wolfson de Flacco dans
If Cousins does move on from Minnesota, Flacco could be an ideal bridge veteran and mentor for a first-round rookie quarterback.
Once mocked for saying he was the best quarterback in the NFL, Flacco bet on himself, declining an extension from the Baltimore Ravens in the 2012 offseason with the belief he could improve and garner a better deal. Flacco went on to win Super Bowl 42, claimed Super Bowl MVP honors and a six-year $120 million extension.
Flacco’s value to a quarterback room even approaching 40 years old cannot be quantified — but the Browns may have a number in mind.
Spotrac projected Flacco to garner a two-year, $12 million deal from the Browns under the stipulation that he is a backup.
The Vikings would have to offer more than $6 million a year, however, Flacco hasn’t garnered an average annual earnings north of $3.5 million since Flacco’s market isn’t nearly as strong as other bridge veteran starters available in free agency.
