Zoe Caswell received backlash for a TikTok video posted over the weekend. She responded to the criticism by fueling a narrative that currently surrounds QB1.
Caswell and Gabriel have dated since high school. They kept a long-distance relationship after the passer signed with UCF. When he transferred to Oklahoma, he asked her to join him.

In September of 2024, he asked for her hand in marriage. The two have been engaged for more than a year in what’s been a busy 15 months.
Gabriel was drafted by the Browns following another transfer to Oregon. He’s been thrust into the starting role as a rookie in Cleveland.
His time under center has been up and down. Through six starts, he’s posted a 1-5 overall record while throwing for 937 yards, seven scores, and two picks.
Gabriel suffered a concussion in Week 11. Sanders was elevated on the depth chart. He won his debut against the Raiders before losing his second start against the 49ers.

Through 2+ games, there’s been good and bad.
Sanders has completed under 51% of his passes with as many touchdowns as interceptions. He’s shown an ability to push the ball down the field but has been less efficient at times than his rookie counterpart.
A quarterback controversy exists in Cleveland. For now, Sanders holds the keys to the offense.
Zoe Caswell believes his time is running out. Her fiancé will be back at the helm if the team has any say.
The comment came in response to a video she posted to TikTok after the team’s most recent contest. A caption on the “Get Ready With Me” clip read, “Browns lost what’s new?”

Shedeur Sanders started that game. Many viewed it as a shot at the passer.
She tried to downplay the reaction to her initial caption, saying, “For everyone complaining about the caption, I obviously am cheering for the Browns… it’s clearly a joke. If we don’t laugh, we cry.”
She then created further drama in her response to criticism.
“Actually, everyone in the building wants him to play,” she replied to a follower in the comments section. “But you wouldn’t know that because you’ve never played in the NFL or been a coach, right?”
Unfortunately, the comment fueled a narrative that Kevin Stefanski does not want Shedeur Sanders to be his starting quarterback. It’s a speculative storyline that’s been discussed since draft night.
Sanders was unable to advance up the depth chart in the offseason. There was doubts as to whether he’d actually make the team in the fall.
Injuries forced him into the lineup midway through the year despite having no first-team reps. His coach did not praise him after his first career start.
Does Stefanski hate Sanders? It seems unlikely. Do the Browns prefer Dillon Gabriel? His fiancée would lead you to believe so.
Despite Gabriel’s return from concussion protocol, Sanders remains...
