Cleveland Browns make a potential key move at the QB position

The Cleveland Browns have taken a calculated step to bolster their quarterback depth chart, activating Dillon Gabriel from injured reserve to open the 21-day practice window. Gabriel, who missed the past four games due to a back injury, could now be added to the active roster, traded, or released before the deadline.

His preseason performance—186 passing yards and three touchdowns against the New England Patriots—suggests potential, though he entered the regular season without first-team reps. The move comes as the Browns, tied for first in the AFC North, navigate Deshaun Watson’s inconsistent play and injury history, prompting general manager Andrew Berry to prioritize backup options.

Meanwhile, the team also activated defensive tackle Kalia Davis, who has been sidelined since training camp with a quadriceps injury, while making roster adjustments across the offense and defense, including signing veteran wide receiver James Proche II and releasing running back Eric Gray from the practice squad.
