Quarterback depth continues to be a major storyline for the [Cleveland Browns](https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/cleveland-browns) as the team looks to fix the position. While the organization has several QBs competing for roles, not every quarterback on the roster is in line for a starting opportunity.
Dillon Gabriel, whose future with the team remains a topic of discussion, could be the odd man out.
According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, the Browns still believe Gabriel has potential despite his current position on the depth chart.
“I know the Browns still like Gabriel and believe he has good upside potential,” Cabot [wrote](https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2026/03/how-will-the-trade-for-rt-tytus-howard-impact-the-browns-two-1st-round-draft-picks-hey-mary-kay.html).
Gabriel has already seen some action with Cleveland, starting six games for the team. That experience gave the Browns a look at what the youngster can do at the professional level, both in his decision-making and his ability to run the offense.
However, Cabot added that Gabriel doesn’t seem to be in a spot for the starting job this season.
“But he’s started six games for them and he’s not really in the mix to start for them this season,” she added.
It’s tough to say what the Browns should or shouldn’t do, given they don’t have much of an option. It’s either giving one of the young guys a chance or finding someone else.
