Patriots Rally to Beat Browns 32-13

The New England Patriots rallied to beat the Cleveland Browns 32-13 in Foxborough, with Drake Maye throwing three second-half touchdown passes and New England forcing key takeaways by Robert Spillane and Jaylinn Hawkins. Browns rookie Dillon Gabriel struggled, completing 21 of 35 for two touchdowns and two interceptions as the offense converted just two of 11 third downs. Myles Garrett recorded a franchise- and career-best five sacks while Cleveland’s offense failed to capitalize on opportunities. Rookie Shedeur Sanders, still without a regular-season appearance after being a fifth-round pick, was ruled out with an injury after practicing during the week, removing an immediate alternative under center. The loss dropped Cleveland to 2-6 entering its bye, and coach Kevin Stefanski said Gabriel will remain the starter when the team returns.
