Flacco's Team officially released Joe Flacco Wednesday morning, just days after the Baltimore quarterback threw for 121 yards in an opening day win over Cincinnati.
With Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston returning for week two, Flacco no longer had a starting position.
"We appreciate everything Joe gave us during his time in the organization - the more-than 120 passing yards, everything. He'll be truly missed," said interim GM Pepe Tiggs. "Of course, he'll have to return his snow pants and reimburse the organization for that haircut."
Flacco's week one performance, which included a four-yard pass to Terrance West in the first quarter, helped Flacco's Team defeat Nigel Snodgrass, a team made up of several Australian emus and four boxes of romaine lettuce, 82.54 to 68.66.
The team, which for the remainder of the season will wear taco shells on their uniforms to honor their former teammate, will now be called The Danny Amendolas.
"I think it's the right decision. I really do," said Danny Amendola impersonator Morris Fleck.
