Browns Elevate Bailey Zappe as Shedeur Sanders Starts, Harold Fannin ‘Full Go’ vs. Steelers

Dillon Gabriel’s availability remains in doubt after late-week injuries prompted roster changes.

Overview

  • The team officially elevated quarterback Bailey Zappe and tight end Sal Cannella from the practice squad on Saturday.
  • Shedeur Sanders is cleared to start against Pittsburgh after exiting last week’s game with a finger issue.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. is expected to play with no restrictions despite a Friday groin injury.
  • Dillon Gabriel is listed as questionable with a left shoulder injury, and Zappe will serve as Sanders’ backup if Gabriel cannot go.
  • Tight end David Njoku has been ruled out with a knee injury, with Fannin leading the team this season at 70 catches for 701 yards and five touchdowns.
