The Cleveland Browns have no plans to trade quarterback Dillon Gabriel despite the team selecting quarterback Taylen Green in the NFL Draft today, according to @AdamSchefter of ESPN.
The decision to draft Green earlier this afternoon immediately sparked league-wide speculation regarding Gabriel's future in Cleveland. However, the organization has clarified its stance, indicating that they intend to keep Gabriel on the roster as they move forward with their offseason program. The Browns' front office appears committed to maintaining depth at the quarterback position rather than moving the veteran signal-caller.
Gabriel remains a focal point of the team's offensive strategy, and the addition of Green is viewed as a move to bolster the talent pool rather than a signal of an impending departure. No trade talks are currently active involving Gabriel, per the report. The team has not yet commented publicly on how the depth chart will shake out during training camp.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
