Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco said today that his back injury is not a disc issue and that it is just stiffness, according to the Baltimore Sun's Jeff Zrebiec.
Flacco expects to miss only one week of practice with the injury. Despite what initial reports suggested, Flacco's injury appears to be minor. Ryan Mallett will take over first-team reps with him on the mend.
Flacco's 24.22 Pass NEP ranked 28th among all quarterbacks in 2016. In fantasy leagues, he projects as QB24, according to our projections.
