Joe Flacco Will Play in Week 9 Against Bears
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco (shoulder) will play in Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Chicago Bears. He had been listed as questionable after missing practice on Friday, but Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports that the veteran signal caller is healthy enough to suit up on Sunday. Having Flacco healthy and available offers the Bengals a major sigh of relief ahead of a potential must-win game against the Bears. Cincinnati sits at 3-5 ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. trade deadline, and a win on Sunday could be the difference between buying and selling. From a fantasy perspective, Flacco is a high-end QB2 option given his impressive passing skills, which have led to 784 yards, seven touchdowns, and zero interceptions over the last three weeks. He'll also boost the fantasy values of his offensive weapons, including Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Chase Brown, all of whom are startable in fantasy football this week.
