Cleveland Browns: Logic for sitting Mayfield is flawed

The Cleveland Browns are finally headed in the right direction, but with Head coach Hue Jackson on the sidelines, they may still be a mess. While on NFL Network not long after drafting Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield, Jackson said Tyrod Taylor is still the starter, even after spending the top pick on Mayfield.

While that’s the standard line when a veteran is there and a rookie comes in, Jackson proved that he’s allowing prior bad decisions to cloud his vision. Apparently the thinking is that since rookies have not worked out in the past, they shouldn’t play now.
