Bengals head coach Zac Taylor announced that newly acquired Joe Flacco will start for Cincinnati on Sunday against the Packers.
Flacco will take all the reps with the first-team offense.
Flacco was traded by the Browns to the Bengals on Tuesday, along with a seventh-round pick in exchange for a sixth-round selection. The move gives Flacco a fresh start after being benched for rookie Dillon Gabriel in Cleveland, while allowing Cincinnati to move in a different direction at quarterback after Jake Browning's tenuous play as a replacement for Joe Burrow.
The Bengals and Packers are set to kick at 4:25 p.m. ET on Sunday at Lambeau Field.
