Jeff Garcia is 43 years old but he believes he could still play in the NFL.

"That fire still burns," Garcia told "NFL AM" on Wednesday. "I'm also realistic, though. I'm 43 years old. Who's gonna want a 40-plus-year-old quarterback to come back and play for them?"

Garcia's wife is a native of Cleveland and told him to call the Browns after Brian Hoyer was lost for the season with a torn ACL.

Garcia last played in 2011 with the Houston Texans.
