The Browns head to London to face the Vikings as Dillon Gabriel makes his first NFL start behind an uncertain right tackle situation. Jack Conklin is questionable after elbow surgery, while Cam Robinson works toward a left tackle role and Cornelius Lucas remains a swing option. Protection concerns and Gabriel’s mobility will shape Cleveland’s game plan in this cross‑conference showdown.

If Conklin suits up, the Browns’ right edge should hold, letting Gabriel work a quicker, more accurate drop. If not, Robinson at left and Lucas at right heighten the need for a clean pocket and may boost Gabriel’s improvisational upside and rushing floor through designed plays and escapes.

Fantasy emphasis centers on Conklin’s status, Robinson’s progress, and how Gabriel’s debut performance translates into quick passes and rush attempts. A healthy line could unlock a higher ceiling for Gabriel and Browns pass catchers, while a compromised line could keep Cleveland ground games and short routes as the safer, lower-ceiling options.

Cleveland Browns vs Minnesota Vikings: Sanders is inactive as emergency third QB, with Flacco and Dillon Gabriel ready in relief and Gabriel making his NFL debut. Cam Robinson is likely to start at left tackle after Cornelius Lucas is scratched. Conklin and Newsome II are active; Hall Jr. and Kazee are out, Munford and Zinter inactive. Vikings sideline Brian O’Neill and a slate of backups, including JJ McCarthy, Donovan Jackson, Jurgens, Van Ginkel, Yurosek and Elijah Williams. Fantasy notes center on QB depth, line shifts, and potential debut impact.

Cleveland Browns add Cam Robinson from Houston to shore up an injury-riddled offensive line, aiming for a steadier run and pass game as Conklin sits, Jones is out, and Lucas has been responsible for a high number of pressures. Robinson, a former first-round pick with Jacksonville and Minnesota pedigree, could raise the floor for Cleveland’s protection as rookie Dillon Gabriel moves into Week 5 action with Joe Flacco benched. A potential London debut looms, with Robinson already practicing and wearing 68.

Browns fall 34-10 to Detroit as their defense again showed steel while the offense stalled. Cleveland’s run defense lingered on the field, but Quinshon Judkins delivered a gritty 82-yard, one-TD effort to keep the ground game relevant. Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond flashed big-play ability on the opening drive, while QB Joe Flacco was pressured into two interceptions and a fumble. Detroit’s Devin Bush and Aidan Hutchinson anchored the win with sharp discipline and relentless edge pressure.

Fantasy takeaway: Judkins is the clear volume back in Cleveland, with Jeudy and Bond offering sporadic big-play upside as Browns receivers. Detroit’s defense remains a strong streamer option against weak offenses, while Browns’ offense likely needs protection improvements to unlock the pass game and protect Flacco from further sacks and turnovers.
