“Zac would read a play to him, and he was able to recite it perfectly,” Bengals running back Chase Brown said about Flacco, per Geoff Hobson of the Bengals’ website. “Almost verbatim. I didn’t hear any mistakes. It was pretty impressive with that. You could go tell him a play right now, and he could recite it for you. Your own play. I was impressed by that.”

“I hope so,” Bengals right tackle Amarius Mims said about Flacco possibly giving the Cincinnati offense a needed spark. “I know we have full faith in him. He’s a pro. He’s been a pro for a very long time. He knows the ins and outs of every team. He’s probably played them all more than once. Very smart quarterback. I feel we’ll be fine with him in there.”

“Until he really gets a good feel for what we’re doing, which I think he already has, I’m going to be a little more demonstrative,” Karras said about working with Flacco. “But I think it’s business as usual. I thought we had a smooth, clean day.”
