Raiders poll: Baker Mayfield as a backup

The NFL quarterback carousel has been wild this offseason and one quarterback whose future is still spinning around is former Cleveland Browns starter Baker Mayfield.

Mayfield, the No. 1 overall draft pick of the 2018 draft, is on his way out in Cleveland after the Browns’ surprising trade for former Houston Texans’ quarterback Deshaun Watson.

Mayfield’s future is unknown because, so far, teams that are looking for a sure starter have yet to make a trade play for him. So, that potentially means two things — Mayfield may be released and/or he may end up being a backup quarterback in 2022.
