Okay. This probably means nothing for Ryan Mallett. Why? Because, Ryan Mallet has thrown a total of 1,779 yards and 7 touchdowns in his career. Unless Joe Flacco is paralyzed, I think his starting position is safe. What about Dustin Vaughan? Oh, you mean Dustin Vaughan from West Texas A&M? I’m thinking that Joe’s job is safe.
Hey, Colin Kaepernick this might be your shot.
EPSN: “Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is expected to miss the first week of training camp because of a back injury, according to sources.
Doctors told Flacco and the team that a week of rest can calm down his back issue. Flacco hurt his back while lifting weights and underwent an MRI, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Backup Ryan Mallett will replace Flacco with the first-team offense. Baltimore’s only other quarterback on the roster is Dustin Vaughan.”
If Joe Flacco hadnt been lifting with his ego he would be healthy. Lift to get better not to look good. Form over weight.
