Browns Won't Be Benching Baker Mayfield
3 years agoCleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said the team isn't considering benching quarterback Baker Mayfield when the team returns from their Week 13 bye. "We're not doing that," Stefanski said. Mayfield has been playing through shoulder, foot, knee and groin injuries for almost two months and completed less than 50% of his passes in the Sunday night loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 12. Backup Case Keenum isn't better than a healthy Mayfield, but he could be just as good as an injured Mayfield. The Week 13 bye will allow Mayfield to rest his injuries a bit, but he'll be facing the same Ravens team in Week 14 and will be a low-end QB2 to avoid in fantasy. The 26-year-old is the No. 25 fantasy QB through 12 weeks, and he has only 10 touchdowns and six interceptions in 10 games played.
