Zappe reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log. Zappe was elevated to serve as the backup quarterback behind Shedeur Sanders in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Raiders, failing to play in the game. With Dillon Gabriel clearing concussion protocol Monday, Zappe will likely have to wait for another chance to be active for a contest down the road this year.

Zappe was elevated from the Browns' practice squad Saturday. This marks the second time that Zappe has been elevated from the Browns' practice quad this season. The 26-year-old will be operating as the No. 2 quarterback, with Shedeur Sanders making his first career NFL start in place of Dillon Gabriel (concussion). Zappe started one game for the Browns in 2024, completing 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

Zappe will operate as the Browns' No. 2 quarterback in Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. With Dillon Gabriel (concussion) being ruled out for the Week 12 matchup, the Western Kentucky product will back up Shedeur Sanders in his first career NFL start. Zappe started one game for the Browns in 2024, completing 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

Zappe could serve as the backup quarterback for Cleveland in Sunday's game against Las Vegas, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Cleveland's quarterback carousel took another turn last week when then-starter Dillon Gabriel suffered a concussion and was replaced by Shedeur Sanders. The practice week begins Wednesday with Sanders expected to take reps with the first-team offense while Gabriel remains in the NFL's concussion protocol. That means Zappe could be in line for his second activation from the practice squad and become the No. 2 to Sanders.

Zappe reverted to Cleveland's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Zappe was elevated ahead of Sunday's Week 8 loss to New England with Shedeur Sanders inactive due to a back injury. However, Zappe didn't get into the game against his former team. The Browns are on bye Week 9, and Zappe's chances of being elevated Week 10 likely hinges on whether Sanders is able to return.
