It was reported earlier during the offseason that the Cleveland Browns have no intention of committing long-term to former first-overall quarterback Baker Mayfield this year, and that he will be allowed to play out his fifth-year option and potentially become a free agent in 2023.
When head coach Kevin Stefanski was asked about how they would approach the quarterback position moving forward, he did not give much of an answer, only offering a “we’ll see”. According to Mary Kay Cabot, one thing the Browns are seeing is whether or not it’s feasible for them to trade for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson.
