Josh Allen Rebounds for Impressive Outing vs. Browns; Bills Halt Baker Mayfield

The Cleveland Browns lost their first preseason game since 2016 on Friday, dropping their matchup with the Buffalo Bills at FirstEnergy Stadium 19-17.

Each team is now 1-1 in the preseason after a contest packed with storylines, including the battle between No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield and No. 7 overall pick Josh Allen. Cleveland quarterback Tyrod Taylor and Buffalo wide receiver Corey Coleman were also going against their former teams after trades this offseason.

Allen, who went 9-of-13 for 60 yards and a touchdown, and Mayfield, who went 7-of-13 for 75 yards, were the centerpieces, and the Wyoming product earned preseason bragging rights on the road.
