Baker Mayfield takes note of talk show host’s criticism

Baker Mayfield

Baker Mayfield very clearly carries a big chip on his shoulder and looks for motivation from any source possible. Often that comes from slights by media members.

On Thursday, the Oklahoma quarterback responded to former ESPN NFL analyst Mark Schlereth’s criticism of him.

Schlereth, who now is a radio host for 104.3 The Fan in Denver, was critical of Mayfield and suggested the Sooners quarterback’s stats were inflated.

One Twitter user contested that point and got into it with Schlereth. Here’s what the fan said:

And here’s what Schlereth said in response:

Apparently Schlereth’s remark about the Heisman Trophy being a “garbage award” got Mayfield’s attention. The Oklahoma QB responded to Schlereth on Twitter and made it clear he’s taking note of what’s being said. He also asked that he be tagged in future criticisms so he can be aware of it.

This isn’t the first time Mayfield has responded to a critic. He had a similar response to Colin Cowherd a few weeks ago.
