Ravens' Joe Flacco is close to returning to practice

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said quarterback Joe Flacco (back) has resumed throwing and is nearing a return to practice.

What It Means:

Harbaugh continues to say that Flacco will be ready by Week 1, so this is a nice sign that he is close to returning to practice. This elevates the fantasy value of both Jeremy Maclin and Mike Wallace, because backup Ryan Mallett has not looked great in the preseason.

Our models project Flacco for 4046.9 passing yards on 378.7 completions, with 22.4 touchdowns and 16.9 interceptions. He is numberFire's 23rd-ranked fantasy quarterback in 2017.
