Baker Mayfield amped to face Falcons' Kevin Stefanski after Browns shipped QB off 'like a piece of garbage'

The Cleveland Browns traded Baker Mayfield to the Carolina Panthers in July 2022 after infamously acquiring Deshaun Watson and signing him to an unprecedented, five-year, $230 million fully guaranteed deal.

Mayfield is apparently still irked about how the whole thing went down.

He responded to an article written by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's D. Orlando Ledbetter, who promoted the piece on X by writing that then-Browns and now-Atlanta Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski had a "dumpster fire at quarterback in Cleveland."

In that teaser, Ledbetter bluntly stated that Mayfield and Watson "failed."

"Failed is quite the reach pal," Mayfield retorted on X. "Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage. Can't wait to see you twice a year, Coach."
