Baker Mayfield Says Handlebar Mustache Is No Longer Lucky

Ron Chenoy-USA TODAY Sports

Do not expect to see Baker Mayfield sporting a handlebar mustache again anytime soon.

After showing off the look during the Cleveland Browns' loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Mayfield said the handlebars had to go.

"I was undefeated before Sunday with the handlebar mustache," Mayfield said on Wednesday.

"So I shaved it off because I didn't deserve it."

Mayfield was motivated to sport the handlebar mustache after he pledged to participate in "Movember" along with fellow quarterbacks Drew Stanton and Garrett Gilbert. The trio planned to partake in the initiative, which involves participants growing out their mustaches throughout the month of November to raise awareness for men's health matters.
