Baker Mayfield launches merchandise line to support Special Olympics

The potential NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year isn’t just tearing things up on the field. Rather, Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Baker Mayfield is doing his part to help the community.

The reigning Heisman winner announced a partnership this week with Barstool Sports to launch a merchandise line. A total of 100 percent of the proceeds will go to Special Olympics.

This really is some great stuff for a player in Mayfield who has taken to the Cleveland community in a big way since being selected No. 1 overall in the 2018 NFL Draft.

On the field, he led the Browns to a surprise win over the Atlanta Falcons last week and is playing some great football as a rookie.

It sure looks like the Browns have finally solved their quarterback issue. They also seem to have a team leader moving forward. A confident one at that.

Good stuff from Baker here.
