Cleveland Browns' official X posted a clip of Stefanski being asked about the quarterback change.

“I understand the question," Stefanski said. "But it’s not our focus. It’s never going to be about one person. We’re not doing a good enough job. I put myself in there as well. We have to be better."

On Sunday, Flacco completed only 17 of his 33 pass attempts, tallying 185 yards with a lone touchdown.

The Lions’ defense took control, sacked him twice, and turned two of his interceptions into points. The Browns didn’t score at all in the second half.

However, if Flacco has another bad game, the pressure will grow. The Browns are trying to stay in the playoff race, and a quarterback switch could be coming, just like the Giants did with Wilson.

The benching marked the second time this season that Flacco has been sidelined during a game. He was also removed during a 41-17 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens.

As per the Browns' depth chart, Flacco continues as the listed starter, followed by Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders, with Deshaun Watson still sidelined.

On April 11, Joe Flacco signed a one-year deal worth $4 million to return to the Cleveland Browns. His last stint with the team was in 2023.
