Key Departures: QB Sam Darnold, T Cam Robinson, S Cam Bynum

Key Departures: QB Joe Flacco, WR Elijah Moore, QB Jameis Winston, RB Nick Chubb
Head Coach: Kevin Stefanski

The Ravens will get their first look at Gabriel as Cleveland's starting signal-caller in Week 11. Baltimore already defeated the Browns in Week 2, when Flacco was under center before he was dealt to the Bengals a few weeks later.

Quarterback: Justin Fields
Key Additions: CB Brandon Stephens, T Armand Membou, Fields
Key Departures: QB Aaron Rodgers, WR Davante Adams, RT Morgan Moses

Key Departures: G Alex Cappa, DT Sheldon Rankins, DE Sam Hubbard (retired)

Record: 3-4
Losing Joe Burrow to a long-term injury put a dark cloud over the Bengals' season outlook, but Flacco has quickly provided a spark since being traded from Cleveland.

Key Additions: WR DK Metcalf, CB Jalen Ramsey DT Derrick Harmon
Key Departures: WR George Pickens, QB Russell Wilson, LT Dan Moore Jr.

Key Departures: CB Eric Stokes, C Josh Myers, DT T.J. Slaton

Key Additions: WR DK Metcalf, CB Jalen Ramsey, DT Derrick Harmon
Key Departures: WR George Pickens, QB Russell Wilson, LT Dan Moore Jr.
Head Coach: Mike Tomlin
