Browns' Baker Mayfield (hand) confident he'll play against Bengals

BEREA, Ohio - Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield hasn't thrown a pass since Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, when he suffered a contusion to his throwing hand.

Mayfield, however, said he plans to practice Thursday and is confident he'll play Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.

"Mama didn't raise a wuss," he said.

Mayfield was injured just before halftime when his throwing hand collided into the facemask of Pittsburgh pass rusher Bud Dupree. He exited for the locker room early to go get X-rays, which came back negative, allowing Mayfield to finish the game wearing a glove.
