Bengals QB Joe Flacco (shoulder) is "planning" to start against the Bears tomorrow, "barring something unforeseen with his AC joint sprain in his right shoulder," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Flacco only got in a limited practice on Thursday, but that workout reportedly went well. Still, Rapoport notes that "no one knows how [the shoulder] will react. But he's giving it a shot." Not very reassuring. We'd avoid using Flacco in 1-QB leagues this week and consider him a risk/reward play in 2-QB and superflex leagues.
