Flacco Will Miss The Next 5 weeks With Herniated Disk

The Denver Broncos have officially announced that starting quarterback Joe Flacco will not start in week 9 against the Cleveland Browns.

Flacco is expected to miss 5 to 6 weeks due to a herniated disk in his neck. 

The 6th round draft pick Brandon Allen is expected to start for the Broncos while Flacco is Injured. I don't believe the Broncos will creep back into playoff contention so Brandon Allen will likely be the starter for the remainder of the 2019 season.
