Joe Flacco doesn't expect Anthony Richardson to think he's the cool teammate.

Flacco appeared in Week 4 against the Colts after Richardson suffered a hip injury and helped the team to a 27-24 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Following the game, Flacco spoke with CBS Sports' Aditi Kinkhabwala and shared that his proximity in age to Richardson's mother doesn't make him seem any cooler for the second-year quarterback.

“(Anthony Richardson's) mom is 8 days older than me, so there's no chance he'll think I'm cool.” πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

β€œListen, he told me his mom is eight days older than me,” Flacco said. β€œThere’s no chance in the world that he thinks I’m cool.”

While Flacco may not think he was cool in Richardson's eyes, Kinkhabwala had said that Richardson thought Flacco was “cooler than he thought.”

Regardless of how cool Richardson thinks Flacco is, the second-year quarterback is probably grateful for how Flacco saved the win. Richardson exited after completing 3 of 4 passes for 71 yards and adding 24 yards on three carries.

Flacco went 16 of 26 for 168 yards and two touchdowns the rest of the game and the win moved Indianapolis to 2-2 on the season. This has solidified the team in second place and Richardson will be hoping to keep the Colts in contention when he eventually returns to play.
