Cleveland Browns QB Baker Mayfield is off of social media following his shoulder surgery due to concerns about its toxic nature. Mayfield had surgery in the middle of January to take care of his torn labrum that caused him problems since Week 2 of the 2021 season.

Given the fragile nature of the shoulder and the length of his full recovery, some were surprised when Colin Cowherd posted this photo of Mayfield on Thursday night without a sling on:
