"Mayfield appeared to be angered after an Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter posted that Stefanski said Mayfield and another Browns quarterback, Deshaun Watson, had failed in Cleveland. Failed is quite the reach pal. Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage, Mayfield posted on social media on Tuesday. Can't wait to see you twice a year, Coach. The Browns drafted Mayfield, a Heisman Trophy winner at Oklahoma, first overall in 2018."
"He played four seasons in Cleveland, passing for 3,725 yards in his first season and throwing and a then-NFL rookie record 27 touchdown passes. In Stefanski's first season in 2020, Mayfield led the Browns to the playoffs for the first time in 17 years and their first postseason victory in 26 seasons. But Mayfield also struggled with consistency throwing 22 TD passes and 21 interceptions in 2019 and wasn't afraid to confront critics of his play."
Baker Mayfield expressed anger over his treatment by former Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski and said he had not received a call or text after being traded. Stefanski coached Mayfield in Cleveland before Mayfield was traded to Carolina in 2022 and before Stefanski was hired by Atlanta, which places them in the same NFC South. Mayfield objected to a report that Stefanski said he and Deshaun Watson had failed in Cleveland. Mayfield was the 2018 first-overall pick, posted 3,725 yards and a rookie-record 27 touchdown passes, helped end the Browns' playoff drought, struggled with consistency, and later revived his career in Tampa Bay with two Pro Bowl selections.
