Browns lost 27-6 to the Steelers in Pittsburgh, handing Pittsburgh sole possession of first place; Cleveland's run defense allowed 160 rushing yards by halftime, Deshaun Watson was sacked eight times, and tight end Harold Fannin Jr. had 10 catches for a career-high 154 yards + the Browns are 5-3 and head to New Orleans next.

The Browns named Dillon Gabriel their No. 3 emergency quarterback for the Week 8 game at Pittsburgh after activating him from injured reserve on Oct.

26; rookie Taylen Green was inactive and not eligible to play.

Browns defensive end Jared Verse said he "can't have respect" for Steelers guard Mason McCormick after McCormick grabbed and body-slammed him on an extra-point try during Pittsburgh's 27-6 win on Sunday at Acrisure Stadium, drawing a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty + a likely NFL fine.
