Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Baker Mayfield won't play in Sunday's Week 18 against the AFC North champion Cincinnati Bengals in Cleveland, Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Tuesday.
Mayfield is expected to undergo surgery on the torn labrum in his left, non-throwing shoulder “as soon as possible,” Stefanski said.
The Browns found out Sunday evening that they officially were eliminated from playoff contention.
"Baker won't play in this last game," Stefanski said. "We're going to hold him out. We're going to get surgery scheduled really as soon as possible so that he can get back healthy as soon as possible.
