Who Should I Start? Dillon Gabriel or Anthony Richardson Sr.

Wednesday, June 11, 12:32 PM

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel was first up in team drills at mandatory minicamp for the second straight day on Wednesday and is going up against the first-team defense, according to The Chronicle Telegram's Scott Petrak. Fantasy managers shouldn't read too much into the Browns QB reps during offseason workouts, as head coach Kevin Stefanski said that rookies Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders will probably require more reps as they get acclimated to the NFL game. The Browns are conducting an open competition at QB, but the expectation is that it will come down to either veteran Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett. Gabriel, 24, stands at 5-foot-11, 205 pounds and could open the year as the No. 3 ahead of Sanders. He has plenty of experience playing for three different teams in college in addition to a strong arm and a good feel in the pocket. He's strictly a dynasty/keeper stash in 2025.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson (shoulder) said that he will be ready for training camp in late July after missing mandatory minicamp with a right-shoulder injury. "I'm all good ... not really even a bump in the road. I feel like I tripped, I fell. Just got back up and hit the ground running again," Richardson said. The former first-rounder aggravated his AC joint, which he injured as a rookie in 2023 and needed surgery on, during OTAs this spring. Head coach Shane Steichen said he didn't put a timeline on Richardson's recovery earlier this month, but all signs are pointing to him being ready for the start of training camp. It's good news for Richardson, but the lost time this offseason has put Daniel Jones in the lead in the QB competition going into the 2025 season. Richardson has a lot of ground to make up and continues to lose fantasy value after being hyped as a QB1 last fall.
