NFL: Baker Mayfield would have played his last game in Cleveland

Regardless of what happens with the Deshaun Watson case, quarterback Baker Mayfield would have played his last game for the Cleveland Browns.

Mayfield, now 27, spoke out about it on Tuesday.

“I think people expect it. Both parties are ready to move on. I’m grateful for my four seasons in Cleveland. There have been many ups and downs during my time here, but they are experiences that I will carry with me forever and I have had the chance to meet people and friends who will be part of my life for a long time to come. . »

The first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft said he was frustrated with all the question marks about his future with the team, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Mayfield appeared in 59 games for the Browns, for 14,125 yards, 92 touchdowns and 56 interceptions.

The Austin, Texas native will earn $18.9 million this season and become a free agent in 2023.
