  • Trio of picks in season-ending loss

    Mayfield completed 12 of 27 passes for 279 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions in the Browns' 33-23 loss to the Bengals on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Analysis: Mayfield's final line was essentially a microcosm of his season -- some eye-catching plays interspersed with plenty of mistakes and inefficiency. The second-year signal-caller's disappointing sophomore campaign ends with Mayfield throwing at least one interception in six consecutive games and completing less than 50.0 percent of his passes in two of his last four contests. Especially given Sunday's results, it increasingly appears Mayfield will be playing under a new head coach and offensive…read more

  • Not enough for Ravens

    Mayfield completed 20 of 33 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns with an interception in Sunday's 31-15 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: There are times this season when Mayfield has been the root cause of a Cleveland loss, but this wan't one of them. The Ravens bottled up running back Nick Chubb, so Mayfield and the Browns didn't have all their weapons firing. Despite that, he had the team in position for an upset as halftime approached, but curious decision-making on the part of head coach Freddie Kitchens put those thoughts to rest. The second half turned into a microcosm of the team's year-long travails: poor decisions,…read more

  • Inconsistent against Arizona

    Mayfield completed 30 of 43 passes for 247 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Mayfield started off well, marching the Browns into the red zone, but then overthrew Odell Beckham for an interception in the end zone to close Cleveland's first drive. From there, Mayfield continued his inconsistent play, though he at least tossed a couple touchdowns during the second half. Although both of those went to tight end Ricky Seals-Jones from within two yards, Mayfield salvaged some production in an otherwise uninspiring outing. Next up for the signal-caller is a home matchup…read more

  • Struggles in win over Bengals

    Mayfield completed 11 of 24 pass attempts for 192 yards with two interceptions Sunday against the Browns. He also carried two times for 13 yards and a touchdown in the 27-19 win.

    Analysis: Mayfield struggled to a 46-percent completion rate as he was held under 200 yards for the third time in the last four games. He made an impact with his legs in the form of a seven-yard touchdown run, but even that wasn't enough to propel him to a useful fantasy line. Mayfield now owns an ugly 15:16 TD:INT for the season but should have opportunities to improve his numbers in next Sunday's favorable matchup against the Cardinals.

  • No wrap, glove needed for hand

    Coach Freddie Kitchens said after Friday's practice that Mayfield likely won't require a wrap or a glove to protect his bruised right hand in this weekend's game against the Bengals, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield opened the week as a limited participant in practice while tending to rib and hand injuries, the latter of which prevented him from throwing Wednesday. The signal-caller was back on the field in full capacity Thursday and Friday, however, performing all of his normal throwing drills without any apparent complications. He'll now look to bounce back from a poor showing last weekend in Pittsburgh, where he completed just 18 of 32 attempts for 196 yards, a touchdown and an interception to…read more

  • Logs full practice

    Mayfield (right hand/ribs) practiced fully Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Per Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal, coach Freddie Kitchens indicated Thursday that Mayfield will be fine for Sunday's game against the Bengals, adding that the QB didn't throw Wednesday because he rested his hand, with his listed rib injury not a factor on that front. Mayfield is thus on track to take aim this weekend at an 1-11 Cincinnati squad, fresh off its only win of the season, a 22-6 triumph over the Jets in Week 13.

    Coach Freddie Kitchens indicated that Mayfield (hand/ribs) looked good during Thursday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: The Browns will reveal later Thursday whether Mayfield was a limited or full practice participant, but the latter listing seems to be more likely given that he was able to throw without incident in the portion of the session that was open to the media, per Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. Mayfield's right hand was still covered in a protective wrap, but he still took his normal amount of repetitions in practice, seemingly setting the stage for him to start Sunday's game against…read more

  • Plans to throw Thursday

    Mayfield (hand/ribs) said he plans to resume throwing Thursday, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: The Browns added a rib injury designation to Mayfield's already bruised right hand, but a source confirmed the ribs are not broken. The second-year quarterback, who was limited during Wednesday's practice session, has not thrown a football since Sunday. Despite the injuries and his limited participation Wednesday, Mayfield is confident he'll play in this weekend's game against the Bengals. "Mama didn't raise a wuss," said Mayfield, referring to his pain tolerance. Garrett Gilbert made all the…read more

  • Limited at practice Wednesday

    Mayfield (hand/ribs) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: In addition to his previously reported hand injury -- which is being described as a contusion -- Mayfield also is listed as having a rib issue. Mayfield has yet to resume throwing since Sunday's loss to the Steelers, but he expects to receive clearance to play Week 14 against the Bengals. The quarterback acknowledged Wednesday that his availability for the weekend is largely a pain-tolerance matter.

  • Not throwing at start of practice

    Mayfield (hand) didn't throw passes during the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: The lack of throwing activity contradicts a statement earlier Wednesday from coach Freddie Kitchens, who said Mayfield wouldn't have any limitations at practice this week. The quarterback had his right hand and thumb heavily wrapped at the beginning of Wednesday's session while Garrett Gilbert and practice squad quarterback Eric Dungey threw passes to tight ends and running backs. It remains to be seen how the Browns list Mayfield on their Wednesday injury report.

  • Cleared for full practice

    Mayfield (hand) won't have any limitations at practice this week, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield was removed from Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers after his throwing hand struck an opponent's helmet, but X-rays came back negative and he rejoined the contest in short order. It sounds like he'll be fine for Week 14 against the Bengals, with his injury believed to be nothing more than a bruise.

  • Expected to be fine for Week 14

    Coach Freddie Kitchens indicated Monday that Mayfield should be fine this week despite the hand injury the QB suffered in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Kitchens added that Mayfield will practice throughout the week, though it's possible that the QB will be listed as a limited participant come Wednesday.

  • X-rays negative

    X-rays taken on Mayfield's right hand during halftime of Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh came back negative, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield was removed from Sunday's loss late in the first half after his throwing hand struck the facemask of linebacker Bud Dupree. The quarterback said he plans to play next week at home against Cincinnati, though the hand will be closely monitored during this week's preparation for Week 14. Mayfield added the hand was numb, and he's unsure if he'll need to undergo an MRI. Head coach Freddie Kitchens described the injury as a "contusion" and "bruise."

  • Turns it over twice in loss

    Mayfield completed 18 of 32 passes for 196 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers. He added two rushing yards and lost a fumble.

    Analysis: Mayfield injured his throwing hand during the first half and came back out for the third quarter wearing a glove. That hand appeared to have created an issue late in the third quarter with the Browns at midfield down by a score. Mayfield was scrambling around and going down for a sack when he had the ball stripped. The Steelers responded with a field goal to go ahead by two scores and the Browns never came back. Mayfield has improved from his earlyseason struggles and has accounted for multiple…read more

    Analysis: Mayfield, who appeared to hit his hand on a helmet late in the second quarter Sunday, was able to return to the contest to start the third quarter, sporting a glove on his right hand. As a result, Garrett Gilbert will resume backup QB duties for the Browns.

  • Accounts for three TDs vs. Dolphins

    Mayfield completed 24 of 34 pass attempts for 327 yards, three touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 41-24 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Mayfield completed an impressive 71 percent of his throws while averaging 9.6 yards per attempt. He completed a pair of short touchdown passes to Jarvis Landry sandwiched around a 35-yard strike to Odell Beckham Jr. Mayfield now has eight total touchdowns over the last three games while throwing just one interception during that span. He's topped the 300-yard mark three times this season, equalling his total from last year, and he'll look to keep it rolling next Sunday against the Steelers.

  • Three total touchdowns in win

    Mayfield completed 17 of 32 passes for 193 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Browns' 21-7 win over the Steelers on Thursday. He also scored a one-yard touchdown on his only rush.

    Analysis: For the second time in four days and third straight game overall, Mayfield accomplished a feat that has usually proven elusive for him this season -- a mistake-free performance. The embattled second-year signal-caller wasn't exactly efficient through the air, but he was taken down only once by the typically ferocious Steelers pass rush and connected with Jarvis Landry and Stephen Carlson for one- and eight-yard touchdown passes, respectively. Mayfield also opened the scoring on the night with a…read more

  • Leads winning TD drive

    Mayfield completed 26 of 38 pass attempts for 238 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 19-16 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Mayfield completed 68 percent of his passes, though his average of 6.3 yards per attempt reveals a lack of big plays through the air. He completed a touchdown pass to Jarvis Landry in the first quarter and added his second on a seven-yard connection to Rashard Higgins to decide the game in the final minutes. Mayfield benefited from a dynamic effort from backfield duo Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt, so better times could be ahead for the Cleveland offense. He'll look to build on this effort Thursday…read more

  • Falls short in Denver

    Mayfield completed 27 of 42 passes for 273 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: He avoided throwing an interception for the first time all season and posted his best yardage total since Week 4, but otherwise, it was another lackluster performance from Mayfield. The second-year QB will face a tough Bills secondary next week, making it unlikely he'll snap out of his sophomore slump any time soon.

  • Stifled by Patriots

    Mayfield completed 20 of 31 passes for 194 yards and a touchdown with one interception in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: While he did better than Sam Darnold did the week before, Mayfield still had little luck solving New England's league-leading defense, and the game was basically over when the Pats grabbed a 17-0 lead in the first quarter. The second-year QB, who has yet to throw multiple TD passes in any game this season while getting picked off at least once in each, gets another tough assignment next week when he leads the Browns into Denver.

    Mayfield (hip) practiced fully Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield came out of Week 6's loss to Seattle with a sore hip, but following the Browns' bye week, the QB feels good and is ready to go for Sunday's game against the Patriots, per Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal. While the QB's Week 8 status availability is in no danger, he's looking at a pretty daunting road matchup in Week 8, given how well the Patriots defense is playing these days.

    Coach Freddie Kitchens indicated that Mayfield (hip) looked good at practice Monday after resting his hip injury during the Browns' bye week, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: We'll have to see if Mayfield ends up listed as a limited or full practice participant once the Browns' initial Week 8 injury report is revealed, but the QB is in no danger of missing this coming Sunday's game against the Patriots. A bigger concern is that he'll be squaring off against a top-shelf defense in that contest.

    Mayfield (hip) is on the field for Monday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield acknowledged after the Browns' Week 6 loss to the Seahawks that he was dealing with some hip soreness, prompting the team to take it easy on the quarterback in light practices during the ensuing bye week. With some extra time to heal up, Mayfield looks in little danger of missing the Browns' next game Sunday against the Patriots, but he'll retain an injury designation until he's back practicing fully. The Browns will release their first official practice report of Week 8 on Wednesday.

Kitchens added that tests on Mayfield's sore hip came back clear, and he doesn't expect the quarterback to miss any game action, per Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal.

    Mayfield (hip) participated in stretching and warmups Tuesday but was sidelined for individual drills, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield suffered and played through a hip injury during the second half of the Browns' loss to the Seahawks on Sunday, and while coach Freddie Kitchens did say Monday that he didn't expect Mayfield to miss any practice time, it looks like the quarterback will be limited during whatever practices the Browns do have during the bye week. Fortunately, with the bye week, Mayfield will have a full two weeks to recover before the team's matchup with the Patriots on Oct. 27.

He eventually went to the locker room after Cleveland's possession ended. The second-year quarterback returned to the field in time for the team's next possession and never missed any action.

    Mayfield completed 22 of 37 passes for 249 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in Sunday's 32-28 loss to the Seahawks. He also ran four times for 35 yards and a score.

    Analysis: Mayfield bounced back from his brutal Week 5 performance, but his interceptions proved to be his downfall in this contest. Two of his picks came in Seattle territory, including one in the red zone. Mayfield had a chance to right his wrongs when the Browns got the ball back with 3:30 remaining, down four points with two timeouts on hand. Unfortunately, Mayfield threw his third interception of the day to K.J. Wright on the second play of the drive, and the Browns never got the ball back. Mayfield…read more

    Analysis: Though he took all but three of the Browns' offensive snaps in Monday's 31-3 loss to the 49ers, Mayfield was spotted with a heavy wrap on his right shoulder and was walking gingerly while sporting a sleeve on his left leg following the game. The fact that the quarterback was a little banged up coming out of the loss wasn't surprising, given that coach Freddie Kitchens acknowledged Mayfield took "too many hits unnecessarily" in Week 5, per Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer.

    Mayfield sported a heavy wrap on his right shoulder and had a slight limp with a black sleeve on his left leg following Monday's loss to the 49ers, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield was not too concerned about the bumps and bruises. "I'll be good, it's just the nature of football,'' he said. Mayfield was sacked four times and absorbed eight additional hits, but the quarterback sounds like he'll be ready to go Week 6 at home against Seattle.

    Mayfield completed eight of 22 passes for 100 yards and two interceptions in Monday night's 31-3 loss to the 49ers. He also was stripped twice, losing one fumble.

    Analysis: Mayfield's first pass attempt was dropped, setting the tone for what turned out to be a nightmare performance. Not only was he then intercepted on the first play of Cleveland's second drive, but he fumbled on his own 33-yard line shortly thereafter. To his credit, Mayfield responded with a couple good subsequent series, but had a would-be touchdown dropped and ultimately intercepted before he could regain much momentum at all.

    Analysis: Mayfield hit Ricky Seals-Jones for a nine-yard touchdown in the first quarter as part of a first half in which he threw for 208 yards but led the team to only 10 points. Cleveland's offense shifted to a more run-heavy approach in the second half, with Nick Chubb rumbling for three touchdowns and Dontrell Hilliard adding another.

    Analysis: Mayfield picked an inopportune time to have his worst game of the young season, as the Browns' defense gave its offense plenty of opportunities to pull off an upset. The second-year quarterback was under duress all game, and only found success on short throws, struggling to connect with his wideouts when dropping back deep in the pocket.

    Analysis: He was atop that list in the Week 2 win over the Jets, when he averaged 3.35 seconds. Mayfield's results this season would suggest he needs to do a better job of getting rid of the ball quicker. Per Jake Trotter of ESPN.com, when Mayfield throws within 2.5 seconds, he's completed 74 percent of his throws with two touchdowns and one interception. Conversely, he's completed only 55 percent of his throws while posting an 0:3 TD:INT when he throws after 2.5 seconds. Having the ball in Mayfield's…read more

  • Back on track with solid Week 2

    Mayfield completed 19 of 35 attempts for 325 passing yards, one touchdown and one interception during Monday's 23-3 win against the Jets.

    Analysis: Mayfield fell apart late in the Week 1 loss to Tennessee, committing three fourth-quarter interceptions as the Browns' deficit gradually increased from nine to 30 over the final 15 minutes of play. Monday night's showing was much more encouraging, with the Browns leading wire to wire as a result of Mayfield taking Cleveland down the field for scores on three of its first four drives. One aspect of the offense that will be crucial to clean up moving forward is reducing sacks, as Mayfield has…read more

  • No limitations at practice

    Mayfield (wrist) isn't listed on the initial injury report for Monday's game against the Jets, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports Mayfield had tape over some fingers on his left hand during Thursday's practice, but he didn't show any visible issues with his throwing hand. The quarterback appears ready to go for Monday's game in New York, facing an injury-riddled Jets team that may have to play without ILB C.J. Mosley (groin) and DL Quinnen Williams (ankle). The Jets already ruled out QB Sam Darnold (illness) and also have RB Le'Veon Bell dealing with a shoulder injury.

  • Practicing Tuesday

    Mayfield was spotted throwing Tuesday at the Browns' practice session and wasn't sporting any protection on his bruised right wrist, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: With the Browns playing a Monday night game versus the Jets in Week 2, the team will alter its practice schedule. Cleveland will hold a session Tuesday before taking Wednesday off, and Mayfield's presence on the field just two days after suffering the wrist injury suggests he's in little danger of missing the matchup with the Jets. The signal-caller endured a rough season debut in the 43-13 loss to the Titans over the weekend, but the stellar form he displayed late in his rookie campaign should…read more

  • Ready to practice

    Mayfield (wrist) will not miss any practice time, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield suffered multiple bruises on his right wrist during Sunday's loss to the Titans, but X-rays came back negative. It's positive news that the second-year quarterback won't be required to miss any time due to injury, and he'll benefit from an extra day of recovery ahead of Monday's contest against the Jets. Still, it remains to be seen whether Mayfield will have to work through pain while throwing Week 2.

  • Gets good news from X-rays

    Mayfield appears to have multiple bruises, but X-rays on his right wrist came back negative, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: It sounds like Mayfield is banged up more so than injured, though he did have a wrap around his hand and wrist after Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Titans. He'll be glad to have an extra day for recovery Week 2, with the Browns heading to New York to face the Jets on Monday Night Football. Even so, it won't come as any surprise if Mayfield's practice participation is impacted in the coming days, as the bruise on his right wrist could make it painful to throw.

  • Dealing with bruised wrist

    Though Mayfield left the stadium Sunday with his right wrist wrapped, his injury is just a bruise, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield's issue is not considered serious, but there's a chance it could affect his practice participation as the Browns prepare for their Week 2 contest against the Jets next Monday.

  • Falls apart in fourth quarter

    Mayfield completed 25 of 38 passes for 285 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Despite piling up 154 yards before the break, Mayfield failed to lead the team to any further first-half points after a Dontrell Hilliard rushing touchdown on the opening drive. He tossed a three-yard touchdown to David Njoku late in the third quarter but fell apart in the fourth with three interceptions, including a pick-six. While he has plenty of weapons to work with, Mayfield will need to be much better himself moving forward if Cleveland wants to avoid turning into the "same old Browns".…read more

  • Coach downplays subpar outing

    Browns head coach Freddie Kitchens acknowledged Mayfield was off during last week's preseason game against the Buccaneers but offered a defense for his quarterback, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield completed just 10 of 26 throws for 72 yards and an interception for a quarterback rating of 30.6, but the coach understands a lot goes into the offense beyond the quarterback's statistics. "Baker was not the sharpest tool in the shed, but there's so much of it that goes into making him look more sharp. I think collectively, O line, tight ends, running backs, wide receivers and quarterback, we were off and that can't happen," said Kitchens. Indeed, there were dropped passes, shaky…read more

  • Ugly preseason line

    Mayfield completed 10 of 26 passes for 72 yards with an interception in Friday's 13-12 preseason Week 3 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Mayfield, who played the first half, didn't have several starters and the offensive line wasn't very good, but his timing was off and he overthrew several passes while working with guys that will be third and fourth on the wide receiver depth chart. His performance stood in sharp contrast to the one other series he played during the preseason, a sharp opening drive with the same surrounding players in preseason Week 1 against the Redskins. This was likely the last we see of Mayfield until he…read more

    Mayfield said he would like to play a full half in Friday's preseason game against Tampa Bay, Nick Shook of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Cleveland head coach Freddie Kitchens has sent mixed signals regarding starter usage for preseason Week 3, which has traditionally been a dress rehearsal for the regular season. Earlier this week, the coach said he doesn't subscribe to the theory that starters should play the majority of Week 3, but went in the opposite direction Wednesday. "It is not a secret. We are going to play our guys some," Kitchens said. "I do not know how long yet. I like to get our work done right now in a controlled…read more

  • Will sit out Saturday vs. Colts

    Mayfield has been ruled out for Saturday's preseason contest against the Colts as the Browns rest a handful of their starters, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Mayfield will not appear in Saturday's tilt after a week of joint practices in Indianapolis, so Garrett Gilbert is now slated to draw the start at quarterback ahead of fellow reserve Drew Stanton. Mayfield's next opportunity for live preseason reps will come Aug. 23 against the Buccaneers.

  • Perfect in preseason drive

    Mayfield completed five of six passes for 77 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's 30-10 win over Washington, resulting in a perfect quarterback rating of 158.3.

    Analysis: The Browns only put Mayfield out for one drive, but got him his work in quickly with six attempts on a seven-play touchdown drive. The sophomore passer couldn't connect on his first attempt, but quickly got in rhythm -- culminating in a 24-yard scoring shot up the seam to Rashard Higgins. Mayfield looked to be in midseason form and didn't even have top targets Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham on the field.

  • Cameo expected, if he plays

    If Mayfield and other key starters such as Odell Beckham Jr. take the field in Thursday's preseason opener against Washington, "it won't be for long," Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: With Mayfield having solidified the Browns' QB position for the first time in years, the team has no incentive to expose him to a ton of preseason contact. With his reps likely to be curbed Thursday, added opportunities will be there for depth options Garrett Gilbert and David Blough.

  • Weapons aplenty in 2019

    Mayfield will have a new No. 1 receiver in 2019 after the Browns traded for Odell Beckham on Tuesday.

    Analysis: The only thing better than winning the Antonio Brown trade sweepstakes might be getting OBJ into the mix, and the Browns didn't have to give up any key offensive players to do so. Mayfield is already coming off a nice rookie season that saw him throw for 3,725 yards and 27 touchdowns while starting 14 games. Mayfield will have a multitude of weapons heading into the new season, featuring receivers Beckham and Jarvis Landry, tight end David Njoku, and running backs Nick Chubb, Duke Johnson and…read more

  • Excited to work with Kitchens

    Mayfield is pleased with the Browns' decision to promote Freddie Kitchens to head coach, Pat McManamon of ESPN.com reports. "I kind of had that sense the whole time," Mayfield said Wednesday. "Seeing how [Kitchens] was, how he didn't change when he made the jump from running backs coach to offensive coordinator. Then just taking over and the difference that we had while he was calling plays."

    Analysis: Promising yet inconsistent during the first half of his rookie season, Mayfield completed 68.4 percent of his passes for 8.6 yards per attempt with 19 touchdowns in eight games after Kitchens replaced Todd Haley as the Browns' offensive coordinator. With Nick Chubb enjoying a similarly strong finish while running behind an impressive offensive line, the Browns can focus their offseason efforts on improving the defense and giving Mayfield more receiving weapons.

  • Puts up big numbers in loss

    Mayfield completed 23 of his 42 pass attempts for 376 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Mayfield had wide-ranging quality of play in the season's final game, throwing interceptions to both begin and end the game. In between, he found the end zone three times -- including 48 and 28-yard scores -- giving him the record for most passing touchdowns in a single season by a rookie. That's all the more impressive when considering he didn't see the field until Week 3, with his first start coming in Week 4. Given his performance, there's no doubt Mayfield will be the starting quarterback…read more

  • Picks apart Cincy secondary

    Mayfield completed 27 of 37 pass attempts, racking up 284 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 26-18 win against the Bengals. The rookie quarterback added six rushes for 16 yards.

    Analysis: Throughout this 2018 campaign, Mayfield continues to establish himself as the most NFL-ready rookie quarterback. He helped keep a perpetually tortured Browns franchise in the playoff mix through mid-December, while boasting an impressive 24:11 TD:INT ratio on the season. The Oklahoma standout has been deadly accurate of late, completing at least 73 percent of his passes in three of his past five outings, and averaging over 270 passing YPG while helping Cleveland win three straight games for the…read more

    Analysis: Though Mayfield threw for only 188 yards, he started the game off with a bang when he connected with Breshad Perriman for a 31-yard touchdown pass during Cleveland's first drive. The rookie gunslinger also threw a short touchdown pass to fellow rookie Antonio Callaway in the fourth quarter, giving the Browns the lead and ultimately the victory. He did, however, commit two turnovers and now has four interceptions in his past three games. Mayfield will look to keep his team's playoff hopes alive…read more

    Mayfield completed 18 of 22 passes for 238 yards and a touchdown while adding two yards on four carries in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: After Carolina marched down the field for a touchdown to open the contest, Mayfield responded by hitting Breshad Perriman for a 66-yard gain with his first throw. While that pass eventually set up a rushing score, Mayfield wouldn't be denied a touchdown of his own in the second quarter, when he uncorked a 51-yard deep ball to Jarvis Landry.

    Analysis: In the first half, Mayfield completed just five of 13 passes for 46 yards and three interceptions, as his team took a 23-0 deficit to the locker room. The rookie first overall pick played much better with his trailing team employing a pass-heavy approach in the second half, and he finally found Rashard Higgins for a 17-yard score with 2:58 remaining. Mayfield will try to be sharper from the get-go against the Panthers in Week 14.
