CLEVELAND — Rookie Dillon Gabriel will get his first NFL start on Sunday when the Cleveland Browns face the Minnesota Vikings in London.

The Browns announced on Wednesday that they were benching Joe Flacco after he struggled to lead the offense in the first four games.

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski added it was his decision to make the change this week — despite making an overseas trip — because he felt it was in the best interest of his 1-3 team moving forward.

Cleveland is ranked next-to-last in scoring, averaging 14 points per game. The team has scored 17 points or fewer in nine straight games going back to last season. Gabriel will be the fifth different starting QB in 10 games, joining Jameis Winston, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, Bailey Zappe and Flacco.
