Baker Mayfield (shoulder) expects to play Thursday for Browns
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) said he “absolutely” expects to play versus the Denver Broncos on Thursday in Week 7.
Mayfield dislocated his shoulder during the Browns' loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday and his left arm was in a sling after the game. "Feels like sh–," Mayfield admitted, before adding that he still plans on playing Thursday night. Mayfield is expected to undergo an MRI on Monday and the Browns should provide an update after that. The No. 1 overall pick from the 2018 draft has made 51 consecutive regular-season starts since taking over as the Browns quarterback in Week 3 of his rookie season.
Mayfield completed 19-of-28 passes for 234 yards, 2 touchdowns, and an interception in Week 6, scoring 13.2 FanDuel points. He averaged negative-0.07 Passing Net Expected Points per drop back, tied for eighth-fewest among all quarterbacks with double-digit attempts in Week 6. Looking ahead, the Broncos are allowing the second-fewest FanDuel points per game to the quarterback position this season.
