Flacco’s stay with the Philadelphia Eagles
“Joe was just a great person to be around, a great pro to be around,” Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said. “Had a phenomenal preseason and was really good for our room, but an opportunity arose for him to go ahead and contribute somewhere else and obviously us getting a pick for that.”
“Our time with Joe Flacco was really good,” he further added. “We really appreciated him and everything that he did. He’s a great pro and you can see why he won so many games when he was with Baltimore and all the other places that he’s been.”
