The start of the New York Giants schedule might have gotten tougher on Wednesday. The Carolina Panthers traded for Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield. The Panthers sent a conditional 2024 fifth-round pick to the Browns in exchange for the estranged quarterback.
While Mayfield hasn’t lived up to expectations as a first overall selection, he has flashed very good play throughout his career. He seemed to turn a corner in 2020, winning 11 games and throwing 26 touchdowns to 8 interceptions, while also setting a career high for adjusted yards per attempt at 7.
