If Baker Mayfield wants to continue shooting his “At Home With Baker Mayfield” commercials for Progressive Insurance, it looks as though he’ll be needing to do it from a new stadium.
According to multiple reports, the quarterback has requested to be traded from the Cleveland Browns.
Baker Mayfield’s agent contacted the #Browns a short time ago to communicate the trade request. The former No. 1 overall pick led Cleveland to a playoff win just 14 months ago. Now, the sides increasingly appear headed for a divorce. https://t.co/0BmaoBKaFw

Mayfield then released the following statement to ESPN’s Adam Schefter:
“It’s in the mutual interest of both sides for us to move on. The relationship is too far fine to mend. It’s in the best interests of both sides to move on.”
Baker Mayfield just told ESPN: “It’s in the mutual interest of both sides for us to move on. The relationship is too far fine to mend. It’s in the best interests of both sides to move on.”

However, the Browns have reportedly already given their answer to Mayfield, and he won’t like it.
And the #Browns, I'm told, said no to Baker Mayfield's trade request. They do not plan to honor it.
