The Baltimore Ravens crushed the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, winning 41-17. Four passing touchdowns from Lamar Jackson and a scoop-and-score from Roquon Smith put this game to bed. With two rookie quarterbacks on the bench, Kevin Stefanski made a change to keep his quarterback healthy. The Browns pulled Joe Flacco and replaced him with Dillon Gabriel, marking his NFL debut.

“Down 31 in the fourth quarter in Baltimore, the Browns have pulled Joe Flacco, and rookie Dillon Gabriel is now making his NFL debut at QB,” NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported.

The Browns went down the field with the Oregon product under center. He even threw his first NFL touchdown, hitting fellow rookie Dylan Sampson for his first pro touchdown, as well.
