Baker Mayfield had the fans behind him after the 2020 season, when he became the first Browns quarterback in 26 years to win a playoff game.

The most high-profile incident was his beef with star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Despite desperately trying to make the partnership work, the duo never found a way to click on the field. The relationship took a turn for the worse after Odell Beckham Sr. posted a snippet of a YouTube video that showed OBJ was always open for a pass, but never got one. Reports even suggested that most in the backroom aligned themselves with OBJ in this apparent stand-off. Beckham was released by the Browns mid-season in 2021. A change in scenario might just be what the doctor ordered for Baker Mayfield. The 27-year-old will have a chance for instant revenge when he makes his debut against the Panthers in Week 1 against Cleveland, which is if he is picked as the starting QB over Sam Darnold.
