context_page_description: Garrett Antone Gilbert is an American football quarterback for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League. Regarded as one of the best high school quarterbacks of his class, he played college football at Texas and SMU and was selected by the St. Louis Rams in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He is the son of former NFL quarterback Gale Gilbert.
  Gilbert initially saw little playing time as a professional and was primarily assigned to the offseason and practice squads of his teams during his first five seasons in the NFL. He came to prominence as the starting quarterback of the Orlando Apollos of the Alliance of American Football in 2019 where he led the league in yards and passer rating and helped his team obtain a league-best 7–1 record and playoff berth. After the AAF suspended operations before the scheduled conclusion of the season, Gilbert signed with the Browns.
context_section_description: On April 5, 2019, following the AAF's suspension of operations, Gilbert signed with the Cleveland Browns of the NFL. He made his debut with the Browns in Week 5, relieving Baker Mayfield in the fourth quarter of a 31-3 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football.
  Gilbert was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list by the Browns on August 3, 2020, but was activated two days later.
