Wearing a royal blue suit with a white collared shirt and no tie, Baker Mayfield arrived Tuesday (June 26) in New Orleans to pick up the last bit of hardware from what turned out to be one of the more unique college football careers in memory.
"This is kind of the final mark on it," the top-overall selected player in the 2018 NFL Draft said about receiving the Manning Award.
Archie Manning, the patriarch of a family that includes three current or former NFL quarterbacks with sons Peyton and Eli, personally handed Mayfield the bronze trophy during a banquet held on the second floor of the Hilton Riverside Hotel.
