BEREA, Ohio -- The development of rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield is of "utmost importance" as the Cleveland Browns play the second half of the season, new offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens said Thursday.
"We want all of our players to see growth from everything, to the line to the receivers to the back and of course the quarterback," Kitchens said. "The quarterback's learning curve and the pictures in his head has to increase."
Kitchens cautioned that Mayfield is going through challenges, the most recent of which were a coach and coordinator change.
"I think Baker's done a very good job," Kitchens said.
