QB Joe Flacco to Start, Sam Darnold to Rest for Jets vs. Cardinals HC Adam Gase: Darnold 'Week to Week' with Shoulder Sprain; Flacco Set for 1st NFL Start in Nearly a Year
OCTOBER 7, 2020 • NEWYORKJETS.COM
Set to start in Week 5 Coach Adam Gase noted Wednesday that Flacco is slated to start at QB for the Jets on Sunday against the Cardinals, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Sam Darnold is viewed as week-to-week with a shoulder injury, so it's possible that Flacco could log more that one start while Darnold recovers. Leading an 0-4 team with a banged-up wideout corps isn't an optimal team context from a fantasy perspective, but Flacco's an experienced veteran option, whose presence should allow the Jets to proceed cautiously with Darnold.

Jets' Darnold says shoulder improving, unsure if he'll play
Sam Darnold and the New York Jets will need to wait a few more days before they know if he has a shot at playing next SundayOCTOBER 5, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Throws two passes in Jets debut Flacco completed both of his pass attempts for 16 yards in Thursday's 37-28 loss to the Broncos.
Impact Flacco saw some brief game action in the first half with Sam Darnold in the locker room with what turned out to be a sprained shoulder. Darnold was cleared to return to the game, pushing Flacco back into a bench role. The 35-year-old quarterback's appearance settled any question about his readiness for game action following neck surgery, so it's safe to pencil Flacco in as Darnold's top backup moving forward.

Officially active Thursday Flacco will serve as the Jets' backup quarterback Thursday versus the Broncos, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
Impact As of Tuesday, Flacco wasn't sure if he'd be ready for the No. 2 gig behind Sam Darnold, but the coaching and medical staffs have come to the conclusion that he's officially recovered from surgery to repair a herniated disc in his neck. If he makes his way onto the field Thursday, it'll mark his first appearance since Oct. 27 of last season, when he was a member of the Broncos.
