PITTSBURGH — What’s that old saying about those who laugh last laugh best?
I’m guessing they are having one heck of a laugh in Cleveland this weekend.
It only seems fair, right? We had plenty of fun at Cleveland’s expense the past few days as the Browns’ quarterback room erupted into chaos. The team chased baggage-heavy Deshaun Watson once he was cleared last week by a grand jury of criminal charges for sexual misconduct. Baker Mayfield pouted and sent out a peculiar thank you/goodbye message to Browns fans, bizarrely signing it “Baker Reagan Mayfield.” Browns management, according to reports, said the team wanted “an adult” at quarterback. Watson ruled out the Browns and appeared headed to New Orleans or Atlanta. Mayfield pouted and asked to be traded. Browns management said they would not accommodate a trade. Mayfield double-downed, said his relationship with the Browns was damaged beyond repair and asked to go to the Indianapolis Colts.
