"Baker Mayfield has requested a trade from the Cleveland Browns, telling ESPN's Adam Schefter that it is "in the best interest of both sides" for Cleveland to split with the star quarterback.
"It's in the mutual interest of both sides for us to move on," Mayfield told ESPN's Adam Schefter. "The relationship is too far gone to mend. It's in the best interests of both sides to move on."
The Browns, however, have informed Mayfield's camp they are "not accommodating his request," a source told ESPN's Jake Trotter.
Mayfield's request comes on the same day that the Browns learned they were out of the running to acquire quarterback Deshaun Watson in a trade from the Houston Texans."
