Baker Mayfield and the Browns have experienced quite the up-and-down 2021 season, and they sit at 7–8 heading into the final two weeks of the year. The situation turned ugly this week, after Mayfield's wife Emily revealed that the quarterback has received death threats.
“The death threats, lies being told about my husband, and blatant DISRESPECT never ceases to amaze me,” she posted to her Instagram story on Tuesday.
During his Thursday press conference, Mayfield addressed the situation, saying that he's not worried about the threats from “keyboard warriors." Mayfield added he understands why his wife came to his defense online.
