Cleveland Browns: Alex Van Pelt fixing Baker Mayfield's footwork

It's hard to deny that Baker Mayfield took a step backward in 2019. The Cleveland Browns quarterback had one of the best rookie seasons ever for signal-callers, even setting the record for the most touchdown passes by a rookie.

However, he went the wrong way in his sophomore campaign, throwing five fewer touchdowns (27 to 22) and seven more interceptions (14 to 21). A lot of that can be contributed to poor offensive line play and bad play-calling from now-fired Freddie Kitchens. But there could be more to it than that.

And if you ask new offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt, it all starts with the feet.
