It seems likely that the Cleveland Browns are going to spend the 2022 offseason building around QB Baker Mayfield. They’ve noted their expectations for him to bounce back while also being aware of the high price it might take to acquire a top-shelf quarterback.
The 2020 version of Mayfield was one fans, and the team, were excited to get behind as the franchise quarterback long-term. The 2021 version struggled with injury, decision making and drama within the locker room.
What the 2022 version will bring will decide both the quarterback’s future as well as the team’s.
