Baker Mayfield doubles down on criticism of Hue Jackson
Baker Mayfield made his feelings about former Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson very clear after he led his team to a win over the Cincinnati Bengals, and the rookie quarterback is standing by everything he said.
Mayfield said on Sunday that he didn’t approve of the way Jackson immediately took a job with another AFC North team after being fired by the Browns. When asked about those remarks on Wednesday, he said he has no regrets.

Mayfield also said there were things that happened behind the scenes with Jackson in Cleveland that people don’t know about.

We get the point. Mayfield was more than happy to see Jackson go, and that is probably one of the reasons the Browns decided to fire the coach. It turns out the icy exchange Mayfield had with Jackson after Sunday’s game was completely intentional, as he clearly feels Jackson held him back in Cleveland.
