Cleveland Browns
Browns make QB change, Dillon Gabriel will start Week 5
Joe Flacco will be the backup
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 1 2025, 8:24 am

Change in Cleveland: Browns are benching veteran QB Joe Flacco in favor of rookie QB Dillon Gabriel, per sources. The Browns were informed of the change this morning. Gabriel’s first NFL start comes Sunday in London vs. the Vikings. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: We knew this move was coming at some point during the season. The time is now. The Browns have scored 16, 17, 13 and 10 points so far this season and Flacco has a grand total of 2 passing TDs to go along with 6 INTs. Gabriel's supporting cast just lost Cedric Tillman (hamstring) for a few weeks and will likely have a run-heavy gameplan against the Vikings in Week 5. He's not much of a fantasy option at the moment.
