Myles Garrett, defensive star for the Cleveland Browns, has observed numerous quarterbacks since the team drafted him first overall in 2017. Dillon Gabriel, a third-round selection in this year’s NFL draft, could emerge as the long-term solution at the quarterback position.
Dillon Gabriel’s First Start
This Sunday, Gabriel is set to make his first official start against the Minnesota Vikings in London. Garrett has expressed confidence in Gabriel, noting his solid performance during practice throughout the offseason.
A Positive Impression
Garrett highlighted Gabriel’s ability to command the offense effectively. He noted, “He just runs the offense like this is his offense. He comes out with a smile on his face, chest out, and gives the call as if he’s been doing it for years.”
Gabriel’s Performance So Far
In his limited appearances this season, Gabriel has already demonstrated promise. He has completed 3 of 4 passes, throwing for 19 yards and one touchdown. His preseason performance has set high expectations for his contributions against Minnesota.
Challenges Ahead
Gabriel’s challenge will be facing a defense led by Brian Flores, known for its strategic complexity. The matchup will test Gabriel’s skills and adaptability as he leads the Browns’ offense in London.
