Browns GM: New Baker Mayfield Contract Won't Be Dictated by Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen

Cleveland Browns general manager and executive vice president of football operations Andrew Berry told reporters Friday that he "won't feel any pressure either way" to extend quarterback Baker Mayfield long-term regardless of what happens with fellow 2018 draft class signal-callers in the Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson and the Buffalo Bills' Josh Allen.

Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com relayed the news from Berry on Mayfield. She also noted that a source told her the team has not yet opened extension talks with Mayfield.

Cleveland has already picked up Mayfield's fifth-year option, though, which will keep the ex-Oklahoma star in town through 2022.
