Baker Mayfield Talks Johnny Manziel Comparisons: '2 Completely Different People'
Beyond the fact they're both Heisman Trophy winners, the comparisons between Baker Mayfield and Johnny Manziel effectively end there.
Mayfield emphasized as much Monday, saying he and Manziel are "two completely different people," according to the Associated Press (via ESPN.com).
"I've always been a team-oriented guy," Mayfield said. "Not saying that Johnny wasn't. But I've quickly earned the respect of my teammates because of how I worked. I wasn't given the natural talent that Johnny had. Because he's a talent. And there's a reason he got taken in the first round, amazing player. We're just not the same mentally. Just wired differently."
