Last year, the Cleveland Browns had their share of breakout stars. Among them was rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield who set a team record for passing yards with 3,725 on the season. In addition to that, Mayfield threw 27 touchdowns, which was an NFL record — surpassing the mark set by Peyton Manning and Russell Wilson.
Mayfield was named the NFL Rookie of the Week seven times in 2018 and yet somehow wasn’t the NFL Rookie of the Year. After the season ended, he found himself the center of attention as he was showing up on late night talk shows, YouTube comedy specials with Kevin Hart, and recently in the middle of the action at the Kentucky Derby.
