On the Baltimore Ravens’ opening possession of the second half, Joe Flacco was running for a first down against the Pittsburgh Steelers. His slide was awkward, and his knee brace broke.
Joe Flacco’s slide was so bad he broke his dang knee brace
Not an elite slide.
Flacco was taken to the locker room, and although there was certainly an injury scare at first, it was just because Flacco had broken his knee brace.
Either way, Ryan Mallett came in for Flacco, who would come back with a new knee brace.
It’s amazing that you can slide so poorly, you break your equipment! But it’s good that Flacco was not injured in his slide. The Ravens really can’t afford any injuries at quarterback right now.
