Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders (12) paces the sideline after quarterback Dillon Gabriel (8) failed to score on a drive during the first half of NFL football game against the Baltimore Ravens at Huntington Bank Field, Nov. 16, 2025, in Cleveland, Ohio.

The Cleveland Browns came out of halftime of their Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens with a 16-10 lead. They were also without their starting quarterback, Dillon Gabriel.

The Browns announced Gabriel was being evaluated for a concussion. They did not immediately provide an update on his status as he remained in the protocol.

It wasn't immediately clear when Gabriel had suffered the injury. The rookie completed 7 of 10 passes for 68 yards before exiting the game.

Gabriel was replaced in the lineup by Cleveland's backup quarterback, Shedeur Sanders. It marked the first NFL action for the fifth-round rookie out of Colorado.

Sanders completed his first two passes on his maiden NFL drive for 12 yards. He was also sacked for a 13-yard loss, capping off a three-and-out for the Browns.

Dillon Gabriel injury update

The Browns announced Gabriel has been ruled out for the rest of the team's Week 11 game against the Ravens because of a concussion.

With Gabriel out, the Browns will hand Sanders the reins for the rest of Sunday's action.
