VIDEO: Baker Mayfield Shades Nick Bosa and Has Excellent Response to Richard Sherman Handshake
By Michael Luciano
Baker Mayfield might be struggling on the field, but there is never a dull moment when he's behind a mic. The Cleveland Browns quarterback was peppered with questions about 49ers defensive end and former Ohio State Buckeye Nick Bosa mocking Baker's "planting the flag" celebration after sacking him in the 49ers' 31-3 dismantling of the Browns on Monday Night. Mayfield's response was classic Baker, as he mocked Bosa for holding onto a loss for two years.

Yeah. "Good for him" for sure.
#Browns QB Baker Mayfield on Nick Bosa flag plant celebration: "Good for him. He had it premeditated. He's been thinking about that, obviously, for two years now. That's a long time to think about that loss."

Unfortunately, Bosa's boisterousness wasn't the only foe Mayfield had to tackle this week.
Mayfield, who has eight interceptions against only four touchdown passes this season, also found himself embroiled in another controversy when 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman accused him of not shaking his hand during the coin toss, although Sherman later walked this back after video evidence came out.
Mayfield was thankful that video evidence exonerated him, as he is still being held to task for the police video of him getting arrested in 2017.

Amazing ??.
At least he has a good sense of humor about the whole ordeal.
Even as the organization and team around him are turning to dust, Mayfield is still looking on the bright side of life.
