It appears the Baker Mayfield era has come to an end with the Cleveland Browns. His final numbers: 92 touchdown passes, a 29-30 record, and more wins as a starter than anyone in franchise history since Bernie Kosar left town in 1993.
He’s still under contract for 2022, but his services will not be needed. The Browns, in search of “an adult” to take over their quarterback position, will reportedly turn to Deshaun Watson, a man who is both younger than Mayfield and facing 22 sexual misconduct civil lawsuits. Cleveland is expected to grant Mayfield’s trade request, giving him a shot at a fresh start elsewhere:
Browns will now work to trade Baker Mayfield. Seahawks, Colts are teams Mayfield would be interested in joining, per a league source
