Gabriel, Green Make Cases for 3rd QB Spot in Browns’ 37-13 Win over Patriots
- On Thursday, Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw three touchdown passes during the team's 37-13 preseason finale victory over the New England Patriots, completing 12 of 15 passes for 185 yards and a 157.6 passer rating.
- Head coach Todd Monken gave Gabriel an extended opportunity after primarily focusing on Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders during the first two preseason games, acknowledging Gabriel had not received a fair chance previously.
- Gabriel connected with Luke Floriea for two touchdown receptions in the first quarter before finding running back Ahmani Marshall for his third score, leading Cleveland to points on each of the team's first five offensive drives.
- Directing a 98-yard touchdown drive, rookie Taylen Green also contributed in the second half, while ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler reported there is a "very real chance" the Browns keep three quarterbacks.
- If Cleveland chooses to move Gabriel, Fowler believes the former third-round pick would likely attract interest elsewhere through a trade or waiver claim, as teams search for affordable quarterback depth.
