Mayfield, however, added that the Browns should be the ones to start this process and that he has moved on and is looking forward to joining his new team once an exchange is finally made. “I think for that to happen, there has to be an approach,” Mayfield told reporters during his football youth camp in Norman, Oklahoma. “But we are ready to move, I think – on both sides.” 2 About The hearing of Watson before the jointly appointed disciplinary officer of the NFL and NFL players, Sue L. Robinson, was scheduled to begin on Tuesday. The NFL is expected to push for a one-year suspension, according to ESPN’s Dan Graziano. Watson has been accused by many women of sexual misconduct during massage sessions. He recently settled 20 lawsuits against him, but is still facing four active lawsuits. Graziano said the NFL would present the cases of five women, four of whom are among those who sued, as evidence of his position during Tuesday’s hearing. The Browns signed Jacoby Brissett this off-season to start if Watson is sent off. Cleveland, meanwhile, have so far been unsuccessful this season in exchanging Mayfield. The former No. 1 general pick is set to win nearly $ 19 million in guaranteed money for the 2022 season. The Browns have been in talks with the Carolina Panthers, according to several sources, but have not yet reached an agreement. Mayfield beat the Browns in their first playoff victory in 18 years in 2020, but struggled last season as Cleveland finished 8-9 and lost the following season. Mayfield has been away from the Browns since Cleveland traded for Watson in March. The Browns barred Mayfield from attending the minicamp earlier this month. Mayfield admitted that he was “disappointed” that there was no trade before the minicamp, but that he did not have bad feelings for the Browns fans. “I am grateful for my four years in Cleveland,” he said. “I will keep a ton of ups and downs and learning experiences with me forever … The people of Cleveland are a great sports city. I am grateful for that and there is no dissatisfaction with the city of Cleveland in any way.”
