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. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a four-year, $6.23 million contract with the Browns in June of 2025.
Leads garbage-time drive
Gabriel completed three of three passes for 19 yards and threw a touchdown pass in Sunday's 41-17 loss to Baltimore in Week 2.
ANALYSIS
The Browns' offense stumbled for a second consecutive week, and starting quarterback Joe Flacco was eventually removed late in the fourth quarter with the Ravens up by 31 points. Gabriel entered for the Browns' final possession, which ended with the rookie quarterback's eight-yard touchdown pass to fellow rookie Dylan Sampson. Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski told Zac Jackson of The Athletic that he's not considering a quarterback change. That may be the case in September, but the Browns' 0-2 start could snowball, and playing a 40-year-old quarterback may not be the best path forward for the franchise.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not yet in starting mix
Head coach Kevin Stefanski said after Sunday's 41-17 loss to the Ravens that he plans to stick with Joe Flacco over Gabriel as the team's starting quarterback, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
ANALYSIS
Gabriel got his first taste of NFL regular-season action late in the loss to Baltimore and completed all three of his passes for 19 yards, including an eight-yard touchdown pass to Dylan Sampson. Despite getting his first NFL touchdown pass under his belt, Gabriel isn't ready to contend for the starting role yet, so the rookie third-round pick will continue to back up Flacco in Week 3 against the Packers.
