Following the Joe Flacco trade after Week 4, the Browns knew the final 13 games would be handled by one of their two rookie signal-callers. Dillon Gabriel immediately took over and started the next six games, but he was injured late in the first half in Week 11 against the Ravens with a concussion. Browns fans finally got what they had been chanting for (albeit in an unfortunate circumstance), as Shedeur Sanders got his first taste of regular-season NFL action for the entire second half.

Unfortunately, it looked like a fifth-round rookie making his debut mid-game in that second half.
