Baker Mayfield had an extra special message for Hue Jackson after clinching a win for the Cleveland Browns over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
The Browns were up 26-18 over Cincinnati with 2:01 left and facing a 2nd-and-4 from their 31. Mayfield completed a pass that David Njoku took 66 yards all the way down to the Cincinnati three. Since the Bengals did not have any more timeouts, that play effectively sealed the win for Cleveland, which kneeled out the rest of the clock.
After the completion, Mayfield cruised by the Cincinnati sideline and made sure to stare down Jackson, his former head coach in Cleveland.

The stare down is completely deserved. Jackson was a terrible head coach who had the Browns 2-5-1 this season. He only played Mayfield after Tyrod Taylor was hurt and refused to give him first-team reps in training camp. He held Mayfield back. Not only that, but then Jackson went to help the rival Bengals, which did not sit well with Mayfield.
In the last meeting between the teams, Mayfield did not show much love to Jackson. This time around it was more of the same.
