Browns QBs Mayfield and Keenum didn’t test out of COVID protocols heading into the first of two Monday night games in Week 15, even needing just one negative test now. One would think it should be a heavy dose of Nick Chubb and then D'Ernest Johnson in the passing game and passing situations for the Browns tonight.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list and is in danger of missing Saturday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

COVID is crushing teams across multiple sports and it is now to the point where postponements may make sense. If the game goes on sans-Mayfield, Case Keenum would get his second start of the season.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Mayfield, who is dealing with multiple injuries, missed Wednesday's practice but was back to a full session on Thursday. This assuages any concerns that he may miss Week 12 as he seems determined to play through the injury. Mayfield has struggled in 2021 and is our 29th ranked quarterback for Week 12.

Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield has been playing through several injuries. But at this point, it doesn’t sound like Cleveland is planning on letting him rest and heal anytime soon.

“We have to see how the next few days go,” head coach Kevin Stefanski said in his Monday press conference, via Zac Jackson of TheAthletic.com. “If he’s ready to go, yes he’ll start.”

Mayfield was ineffective on Sunday for a second poor game in a row. He finished 15-of-29 passing for 176 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. He was inconsistent in hitting and missing receivers throughout the 13-10 victory over Detroit, the story said. Stefanski had admitted that Mayfield isn’t 100 percent and is “definitely battling.”

Browns HC Kevin Stefanski told reporters Friday that QB Baker Mayfield (whole body) will start Sunday against the Detroit Lions.

The good thing is the Browns just locked up the rest of their offensive line. Now they need to keep Mayfield on his feet or else he will be kept together with string and tape. Temper expectations for Mayfield despite the plus matchup.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield returned to practice on Thursday.

Mayfield is dealing with a variety of injuries, but the shoulder remains the biggest concern. He is playing through the injury but is a weekly candidate to miss snaps if he suffers an aggravation. Mayfield may be without Donovan Peoples-Jones this weekend but should have Jarvis Landry, who also returned to practice today. He remains a low floor, low ceiling option and is our 21st ranked quarterback against the Detroit Lions for Week 11.

“Baker Mayfield is day-to-day with his knee, but feeling good about where he is this morning,” HC Kevin Stefanski said, via sports radio 92.3 The Fan.

The story said the team hasn't ruled out ligament damage for Mayfield. Mayfield had to exit Sunday’s blowout loss to the Patriots in the second half, but apparently could have returned to the game if it hadn’t been decided, according to the story. It doesn’t seem like Mayfield is dealing with anything too serious, the story went on to say.

The Cleveland Browns have no plans on trading Odell Beckham Jr. by today’s trade deadline, per sources.

Russini went on to say in the tweet that she was told there haven’t been any offers that would make sense for the organization. Beckham doesn't appear to be part of the game plan for the Browns at this point, yet the organization doesn't look like they want to just give him away for a price that they don't feel is fair.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield (torn left labrum and shoulder fracture) received medical clearance last night to play and is expected to start Sunday.

Mayfield has full range of motion in the shoulder, which helped with him being cleared. It is going to be tough to trust that his health can remain on the up and up for the rest of the season, but the Browns are willing to risk it for the biscuit.

According to a source close to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, shutting down Mayfield for the season is not a prevailing theme as they prepare for Steelers. More about whether they can get swelling to subside before Sunday.

This seems like a lot of work to put a band-aid over a bullet wound. Mayfield is one wrong hit away from major surgery, but with the playoffs a realistic option in 2021, the Browns would rather have 75% of Mayfield than Case Keenum.
