Joe Flacco had a less-than-elite fumble but it’s okay

He put everyone’s worries to rest

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is back in action after suffering a season-ending knee injury in Week 11 of last season.

Unfortunately for him, the first bit of action was not what you’d call elite.

Ouch. Flacco wasn't ready for the snap from center Jeremy Zuttah. The Buffalo Bills' Preston Brown recovered it.

Not to worry, though. Flacco recovered nicely to throw a 66-YARD TOUCHDOWN to Mike Wallace — who, by the way, failed one of his conditioning tests for the Ravens this summer — a few plays later.

Football season is here. Welcome back, Joe. Welcome back, Mike.
