Gabriel faces trade/release risk; doesn't fit Monken's QB profile.

Former third-round draft pick faces uncertain roster status as the Browns navigate a four-QB room before roster cutdown to 53 players. Gabriel spent majority of training camp with second-team offense and has not shown indication of competing for starting or backup roles. At 5'11" and 205 pounds, he does not fit head coach Todd Monken's preference for big, athletic quarterbacks. Despite college pedigree (First Team All-Big 10, Big 10 Offensive Player of the Year, First Team All-American) and smart play (3.91 GPA), Gabriel has not demonstrated capability to guide the offense and win games in preseason. The source suggests coaches and GM Andrew Berry have opportunity to trade or release Gabriel, keeping him only as insurance if Watson suffers another injury.
