BEREA, Ohio -- Baker Mayfield heads into a five-week break right where he should be for a rookie quarterback -- and for the Cleveland Browns plans with him.
How that translates during the season will be determined by how Mayfield does during training camp and preseason games, when the competition and intensity level ratchet higher, and by whether Tyrod Taylor continues to show the same level of professionalism and play he has shown in offseason work.
"[Taylor's] held up his end of the bargain with not just the way he works but the way he plays and the way he leads," Browns coach Hue Jackson said Wednesday.
