        Week 5 Overview

        Njoku has remained ahead of rookie teammate Harold Fannin in playing time through three games, and he led the team in targets last week for the first time this season. But Cleveland has featured a different target leader each time out and limited passing production every time. Njoku and Fannin limit each other’s upside, while the strong play of Detroit’s defense so far adds downside risk.

        Dillon Gabriel QB CLE
        8:12pm UTC 9/30/25

        Dillon Gabriel Expected To Start Week 5

        Dillon Gabriel Expected To Start Week 5

        The Browns are expected to start QB Dillon Gabriel vs. the Vikings this weekend, according to CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz. QB Joe Flacco has been worse than expected through four weeks, ranking dead last among 33 qualifying QBs in completion rate (58.1%), yards per attempt (5.1), and passer rating (60.3). The Browns are averaging 14 points per game -- ahead of only the Titans.

        Browns rookie TE Harold Fannin Jr. managed just 2 catches for 24 yards in Sunday's loss to the Lions. But his six targets tied for second on the team, and Fannin played a season-high 85% of the offensive snaps, according to Pro Football Focus. That included Fannin playing one snap more than TE David Njoku for the first time and beating him by one route (also for the first time).

        Browns WR Cedric Tillman suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and has been ruled out. We'll update his status when we know more, but expect this to be a multi-week injury. Tillman's absence will free up snaps for rookie WR Isaiah Bond, and potentially mean more targets for WR Jerry Jeudy and TEs David Njoku and Harold Fannin.
