Overview

• Head coach Kevin Stefanski selected third-round pick Dillon Gabriel to start against the Vikings in London after a 1–3 opening, according to the Associated Press.
• Joe Flacco moves to primary backup, and Shedeur Sanders remains the emergency third quarterback and will be inactive on game day, team coaches said.
• The change follows eight Flacco turnovers in four games and an offense averaging 14 points, with offensive coordinator Tommy Rees framing it as a bid to “spark” the unit.
• Sanders continues on a development path running the scout team and targeted drills, calling those sessions “my game day” as he waits for an opportunity.
• Myles Garrett praised Gabriel’s command of the offense, Sanders’ silent locker-room exchange drew broad criticism, and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported the team could give Sanders a look later this season.
