Baker Mayfield To Be Limited Tuesday
3 years agoCleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) will be limited in practice on Tuesday. Mayfield aggravated his left shoulder injury in the Week 6 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, but he said he expects to play on Thursday night against the Denver Broncos. It's not believed that he'll need surgery to fix the issue, but the Browns are seeking second opinions on his non-throwing shoulder. Mayfield enters Week 7 as the No. 22 fantasy QB with 1,474 passing yards, only six touchdowns and three interceptions, and he'll be without both starting running backs Nick Chubb (calf) and Kareem Hunt (calf). Even against a Broncos defense that doesn't look nearly as good as they did early in the year against inferior competition, Mayfield will be a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues while playing through his injury.
