Daugherty looks to have been correct because Mayfield was seen headed for the X-ray room after the game.

We will likely receive an update from the Browns in the coming days. For now, speculation will likely stem from a wrap that was on Mayfield’s throwing hand as he left the stadium.

Mayfield was 25/38 for 285 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in the Browns’ 43-13 loss. The game was disappointing both for Mayfield and Cleveland after an offseason of hype.
