Overview
- Flacco went 16-of-34 for 184 yards with two interceptions and a lost fumble, was pulled late for Gabriel, and has six picks and eight turnovers through four games.
- Stefanski declined to consider a switch, saying the Browns' offensive issues are not about one player and must be addressed collectively.
- Gabriel remains the primary backup and saw only late relief snaps, while Sanders was inactive as the designated third quarterback under the emergency rule.
- Sanders told ESPN Cleveland he is ready to play and believes he could outperform current NFL quarterback play, and he was shown looking dejected as Gabriel entered.
- Team insider Mary Kay Cabot reported Cleveland does not plan to trade Sanders this season, as fan and media calls grow to evaluate the rookie quarterbacks at 1-3 with no game over 17 points.
