Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski never considered replacing starting quarterback Dillon Gabriel with Sanders during Sunday's 23-9 loss to the Steelers in Week 6, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

The Browns were unable to create much offensively, but that did not fall solely on Gabriel, who was sacked six times and absorbed another 16 hits. Injuries along the offensive line also limited the rushing attack, and Cleveland's pass-catchers dropped multiple passes. It's unlikely Sanders could have changed the trajectory of the game, but Stefanski could only list the things to fix on a broken offense (13.67 ppg) with no easy solution. The organization will still likely need to see what it has in Sanders before entering the offseason, but Gabriel appears set for a long look in the starting role before that happens.
