In Week 2 of the 2021 season, Baker Mayfield suffered what turned out to be a catastrophic shoulder injury that marked the beginning of the end for his time with the Browns. Then-rookie wide receiver Anthony Schwartz shouldered a bulk of the blame for his role on the play, but he says it wasn’t his fault.
On the play in question, Schwartz was running a deep route to cut in the middle of the field on third-and-13 at midfield against the Texans. But he froze and Mayfield fired the ball right into the hands of safety Justin Reid. While Reid was returning the interception, Mayfield attempted to tackle him and injured his left non-throwing shoulder.
