2026 Fantasy Outlook
Gabriel, a 2025 third-round pick, was selected two rounds ahead of Shedeur Sanders but now appears to sit behind not only Sanders on Cleveland’s depth chart, but also veteran Deshaun Watson, who has recovered from his Achilles injuries. In 10 regular-season appearances as a rookie, including six starts, Gabriel struggled to generate production beyond short-area throws, posting a league-worst 5.1 yards per attempt while completing 59.5 percent of his passes for 937 yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions. Cleveland added rookie WRs KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston to the receiving corps, and a revamped offensive line should improve overall stability, but Gabriel enters 2026 without a clear path to meaningful playing time.

In line for more reps
Browns head coach Todd Monken said Monday that Gabriel is on track to receive more reps in future practices after the second-year quarterback has had a strong start to training camp, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. "It's up to the player to take advantage and maximize those reps, which I feel like Dillon has done... If that continues, we'll continue to up his reps. I mean, he's earned that."
ANALYSIS
Heading into camp, Monken had narrowed down the competition for the starting quarterback gig to Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders. While Gabriel remains unlikely to factor into that job battle, the 25-year-old has done his part thus far to put himself in good standing to make the final roster as the No. 3 signal-caller. Cleveland invested a sixth-round pick on dual-threat quarterback Taylen Green in April, but Gabriel's productive start to camp could leave fewer reps with the second-team offense available to the rookie.

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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Uphill battle in QB competition
Gabriel is behind Shedeur Sanders in Cleveland's offseason quarterback competition, which also includes Deshaun Watson, per Zak Patterson of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Todd Monken said he intends to have a starter in place by the early part of training camp in late July, and he added that spring reps won't be divided evenly, hinting that the majority may go to Sanders. Gabriel has not been in the building during the offseason, while Sanders spent the offseason in Cleveland, familiarizing himself with the new coaching staff. Watson remains tied to the Browns due to his onerous contract, and he has 72 regular-season starts under his belt, giving him a large edge in experience compared to Gabriel and Sanders, whom Cleveland selected in the third and fifth rounds, respectively, of the 2025 NFL Draft.
