Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield will continue to be a lightning rod for the fanbase until he returns to the field. After leading his team to the playoffs in 2020, Mayfield’s play slipped greatly in 2021 with a major injury a major contributing factor.
On and off the field, Mayfield’s deteriorated relationship with Odell Beckham Jr. became a major storyline last year including the receiver’s father posting a video online criticizing the quarterback’s play.
In the community, Mayfield has been highly engaged. Recently, he surprised a Florida soccer team on their way to their state championship game. Last Thanksgiving, he was a part of serving meals to the people of Cleveland. He also hosts his summer youth football camp.
