The Browns will plan on having Baker Mayfield return as the the team's quarterback next season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.
Mayfield, the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is expected to play out the fifth-year on his deal in Cleveland. It is unclear if Mayfield would then receive an extension or receive the franchise tag or enter free agency.
Mayfield was placed on injured reserve this week and will not play in Cleveland's regular season finale vs. the Bengals.
