Dillon Gabriel

24-Year-Old QuarterbackQB
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gabriel, who the Browns took in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, will begin the regular season as the Browns No. 2 quarterback behind Joe Flacco, while fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders will operate as the emergency No. 3 option. The Browns are expected to get by with this trio this year before seeking a franchise quarterback in next year's draft, but they'll kick the tires on Gabriel for 17 weeks to see if he's a long-term fit.

QBCleveland Browns
December 1, 2025
Gabriel replaced starter Shedeur Sanders for one snap in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the 49ers in Week 13, completing his only pass attempt for zero yards.
ANALYSIS
Gabriel was needed for one play when Sanders was required to leave the field following a sack during which he appeared to tweak his ankle. He was checked out by team trainers, triggering a mandatory removal, and Gabriel entered. Sanders will remain the starter for Week 14 against Tennessee.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might be QB2 for rest of 2025
QBCleveland Browns
November 29, 2025
Gabriel could remain as Cleveland's backup quarterback beyond Week 13, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Browns are open to starting Shedeur Sanders for the rest of the 2025 season.
ANALYSIS
Gabriel was the Browns' starting quarterback in six games before entering the league's concussion protocol during Cleveland's Week 11 loss to Baltimore. That led to Sanders starting against the Raiders in Week 12, and while Gabriel has since cleared the league's concussion protocol, the Browns opted to stick with Sanders for Sunday's game against the 49ers. Schefter relays that the Browns are open to giving Sanders an extended look for the rest of year, though Gabriel could have another crack at the starting job if the former struggles Sunday and beyond.
