The 6-foot-1, 215-pound Mayfield originally entered the NFL as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma by the Browns. Across four seasons and 60 games (59 starts) in Cleveland, he completed 1,185 of 1,924 pass attempts for 14,125 yards with 92 touchdowns against 56 interceptions. As a rookie in 2018, he set the Browns franchise single-season record for passing yards per game with 266.1.
With the addition of Mayfield, the Rams quarterback room now consists of him, John Wolford, Bryce Perkins and Case Cookus (practice squad). Starter Matthew Stafford (neck) was placed on Injured Reserve last week and is currently dealing with a spinal cord contusion. Rams head coach Sean McVay on Monday said Wolford is dealing with neck soreness and considered day-to-day.
