Gabriel is learning from Super Bowl champions Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett while competing for the starting job during Cleveland's mandatory minicamp.

With minicamp officially underway, the noise continues to grow surrounding this Cleveland Browns' quarterback.

The Cleveland Browns' quarterback competition is heating up during OTAs. Shedeur Sanders performed well but didn't take first-team reps, while Kenny Pickett saw time with the starters. The competition remains open, but each day's performance carries weight.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Browns quarterback Kenny Pickett and Dillon Gabriel head into mandatory minicamp Tuesday right on track with where they were expected to be in their development at this point.

The Browns wrapped up minicamp on June 12, the last mandatory piece of the offseason program. It did so with the QB fight no closer to being resolved.

Save for a couple of passes thrown in the direction of tight end David Njoku and a few offensive snaps destroyed by all-world defensive end Myles Garrett, what we’ve seen through two days of mandatory minicamp for the Cleveland Browns is mostly what we saw in brief glimpses of rookie minicamp and voluntary organized team activities.
