Can a four‑QB roster give Cleveland the edge it needs? The team now lists four quarterbacks among its 53 active players.
On Monday the Browns lifted Dillon Gabriel from injured reserve. The backup had missed the season opener with a back strain and just completed the 21‑day practice window required for a return.
Gabriel now joins Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders and rookie Taylen Green on the depth chart. For my money, Cleveland is betting big on quarterback depth, a strategy Coach Todd Monken praised all summer and reiterated at today’s press conference.
Tight end Carsen Ryan was cut to make room. He appeared in six games, primarily on special teams.
