Gabriel has long seemed like the Browns' preferred backup, as evidenced by his logging more playing time in the preseason. In two games, he threw for 272 yard, a touchdowns and two interceptions, while Sanders threw for 152 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions in two appearances.

The Browns traded Kenny Pickett to the Raiders. Here's what it means for Shedeur Sanders and the Browns' QB depth chart:

The Cleveland Browns are trading the quarterback to the Las Vegas Raiders in return for a fifth-round pick. The Raiders will be without Aidan O'Connell for six to eight weeks after he suffered a fractured wrist, so Pickett will serve as Geno Smith's backup in Las Vegas. ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported the deal.
