CLEVELAND — So much for Baker Mayfield putting the team first. So much for the opportunity to praise running back Nick Chubb for saving a season that was minutes from going down in flames. So much for emphasizing that everything the Browns want to achieve is still within reach. By dodging his media responsibilities and declining comment after Sunday’s 13-10 victory over the Detroit Lions at FirstEnergy Stadium, Mayfield let his ego take over.

Rutgers senior guard Geo Baker is frustrated with how the NCAA treats athletes. Baker ripped the NCAA on Instagram on Saturday, calling the organization’s approach to athlete rights “modern day slavery.” Baker made those comments in response to an Instagram post from the NCAA March Madness account.

Mayfield was a close contact of a Browns staff member who tested positive, so he’s being put on the list. Browns fans can breathe a small sigh of relief. Cleveland… Source link

Amid a lopsided road loss to a respected AFC North rival on Sunday, the Cleveland Browns subjected their fans to a pair of brutal interceptions, a complete inability to get a defensive stop when needed and, yes, another Odell Beckham Jr. end-game tantrum. In other words, the Browns’ 38-7 loss to Pittsburgh felt a whole heck of a lot like any number of defeats from 2019.  Or 2018.  Or 2017.  And so on. Browns fans are used to melting down by now, given the horrific football they’ve been… Source link
