Overview

• Tua Tagovailoa and Dillon Gabriel are confirmed starters for Miami and Cleveland in Week 7, creating a rare lefty-versus-lefty matchup.
• It is the first NFL game with two quarterbacks from Hawaii starting against each other and the first left-handed starter duel since 2006.
• Records show this will be just the 24th southpaw-against-southpaw game since handedness tracking began in 1950.
• Gabriel earned the Browns job after the team traded Joe Flacco, and Tagovailoa publicly praised him as a poised, accurate passer.
• Tagovailoa hails from ʻEwa Beach and Saint Louis School, Gabriel is from Mililani and broke Tagovailoa’s Hawaii high school passing record.
