Cleveland Browns News: Will Baker Mayfield avoid sophomore slump?

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield showed during his rookie season that he has the ability to be a game-changer under center and can make throws all over the field.

Because of his presence leading the offense, the entire Browns team last season took strides forward. With how well he and the rest of the offense played, the Browns were even in playoff contention towards the end of the season.

However, Mayfield will have to avoid something that happens to most second-year players: the sophomore slump. No matter the success and talent of a player, they seem to have a drop off in production during their second season.
