INDIANAPOLIS — Former Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel shot back at doubters who said he can’t play in the NFL because of his height.

Gabriel, listed at 5-foot-11, is looking to join Kyler Murray, Bryce Young and Russell Wilson among the only starting quarterbacks who are under 6 feet tall.

“I’ve had the most experience ever, as you can imagine, starting in high school as a freshman all the way into my senior year on varsity, and then I’ve done the same thing in college,” Gabriel said at the NFL scouting combine Friday. “I’m a leader. I’m a winner. I’ve won at all three spots, and I’ve done it in big games.”
