Baker Mayfield Suffered Ankle Injury vs. Chargers; Not Believed to Be Serious

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield is not expected to miss time with an ankle injury suffered during Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Cleveland selected Mayfield, the 2017 Heisman Trophy winner, with the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft out of the University of Oklahoma. The team chose him from a high-profile QB class that also featured Sam Darnold, Josh Allen and Josh Rosen picked inside the top 10.

The 23-year-old Texas native remained durable throughout his collegiate career, which included stops with the Sooners and Texas Tech Red Raiders.
