It appears that the entire Browns locker room has fully turned over to Deshaun Watson after the Baker Mayfield tenure appears to be over.

However, being as the Browns have not found a trade partner for Mayfield yet, he does remain on the team’s roster still.

It’ll be interesting to see if Baker Mayfield actually shows up to Cleveland if he’s not traded or released prior to the season.
