Baker Mayfield prepares for a Week 2 game against the Cleveland Browns on September 19, 2026. Though some view this matchup as a revenge game for Mayfield, he has been positive about his time in Cleveland. Instead, he seems to harbor more resentment toward former coach Kevin Stefanski, now with the Atlanta Falcons. Mayfield previously faced the Browns in 2022 while with the Carolina Panthers but has expressed peace with the organization ahead of this game. The focus may shift to their later matchup in Week 8, which could evoke more emotion from Mayfield.
