Baker Mayfield

How will Baker Mayfield spend his first NFL paycheck? You might think the No. 1 overall pick in the draft would go all-out, but it doesn’t sounds like that is the case.

ESPN wrote up a cool story where they shared what NFL rookies will be doing with their newfound money. What did Mayfield say when asked how he would spend it?

“I haven’t thought about it. Savings? Yeah, savings is a good call,” the Cleveland Browns quarterback said.

He was among a number of rookies who talked about plans to save their money. Josh Rosen, Leighton Vander Esch, Sony Michel and Isaiah Wynn were some of the others who shared plans to save. Several other players talked about buying or doing something nice for their parents. Many also talked about buying new cars or fixing their old ones.

The best answers of all though seemed to come from Bradley Chubb and Justin Reid. If you’re a fan of one of their teams, you’ll appreciate the responses. The good news is that nobody seems to be on the Vince Young plan yet.
