Who Should I Start? Blaine Gabbert or Phillip Walker

Monday, January 8, 1:51 AM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Blaine Gabbert wasn't asked to do much in Sunday's 13-12 road win over the Los Angeles Chargers, completing 15-of-30 passes for 154 yards and an interception with five carries for 46 yards. With the Chiefs resting most of their top skill positions in a game with no playoff implications, Gabbert understandably had a difficult time moving the ball and sustaining drives. The 34-year-old veteran looked spry, though, on 25- and 14-yard scampers to set up a go-ahead field-goal drive during the fourth quarter. Gabbert served his purpose in Week 18 to bridge the gap between this meaningless contest and K.C.'s postseason endeavors, and he will head back to the sidelines as Patrick Mahomes' backup when the team hosts the Miami Dolphins on Saturday night for Wild Card action.

The Cleveland Browns signed quarterback P.J. Walker to the active roster on Tuesday. He had been on their practice squad. The move comes in conjunction with Cleveland's announcement that rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip) has been placed on injured reserve. Walker, who will now back up Joe Flacco, started three games for the Browns earlier this season, completing just 49.5 percent of his passes for 618 yards, one touchdown, five interceptions, and one lost fumble.
