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.
Taking over as starter
The Browns announced that Gabriel will start Sunday's game against the Vikings in London, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, the rookie third-round pick will take over the top job from Joe Flacco, who will move into the No. 2 role, who led the Browns to a 1-3 record through the first four games of the season. Fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders, meanwhile, will remain third on the depth chart. Gabriel possesses more mobility than Flacco, who had been hit 19 times over the last two games according to Cleveland.com. The signal-caller's ability to provide some scrambling ability could prove to be helpful behind an offensive line that's been without both its starting tackles of late. That said, Gabriel could preside over a run-based attack headlined by rookie running back Quinshon Judkins, which could limit the quarterback's passing volume and his overall fantasy appeal.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
First start might come overseas
Gabriel is expected to start for the Browns in Week 5 against the Vikings, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Browns have yet to announce their plans under center, though Joe Flacco has been underwhelming through four games with only two total touchdowns and eight turnovers. Gabriel has entered two of the last three games in garbage time but may now get the chance to take over the Cleveland offense. If that's the case, he'll draw a few tough tests to begin his pro career with matchups against the schematically tough Vikings in London in Week 5 and the strong pass rush of the Steelers in Week 6.
