by Jack Browne from on (#3ZCAM)
It's Baker time.
The Cleveland Browns will name Baker Mayfield the team's starting quarterback on Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com reports.
The 2018 No. 1 overall pick led the Browns to their first win since 2016 against the New York Jets on Thursday, erasing a 14-point deficit after replacing an injured Tyrod Taylor at halftime.
Head coach Hue Jackson said after the victory that he would wait to name the starter moving forward.
The offense struggled under Taylor, who completed only 4 of 14 attempts for 19 yards before exiting. Mayfield, meanwhile, threw for 201 yards and completed nearly 74 percent of his passes.
