Baker Mayfield does not seem like he's going to miss Hue Jackson.

"Bring it on," Mayfield told reporters of assuming an increased leadership role following Jackson's dismissal.

"With all the distractions, we will see what kind of men we have in this room—not what kind of team that we have but what kind of men can handle a distraction the right way—can come together and focus on doing their job and doing it at a high level against a great team (the Kansas City Chiefs) come Sunday," Mayfield continued.

The Browns fired Jackson and offensive coordinator Todd Haley on Monday amid internal discord and a 2-5-1 start.
