Baker Mayfield fires back at Colin Cowherd’s hating on Odell Beckham Jr. and Cleveland

Radio host Colin Cowherd continued his unhealthy obsession with all things Baker Mayfield in a recent segment on his FOX Sports Radio syndicated program. This time around, Cowherd openly questioned Mayfield’s new target, wideout Odell Beckham Jr.

FOX tweeted out a clip from the segment, where Cowherd goes off spewing negativity about the Browns organization. He then moved to Beckham and his desire to be in Cleveland.

“Nobody will just say the truth,” Cowherd proclaims. “Odell Beckham is not happy here (in Cleveland). He’s not happy. Look at him! Does he look happy?”

Cowherd then went off on a speculative rant that Beckham is upset about being in Cleveland, invoking an out-of-context conversation with Saquon Barkley in the process.

Mayfield snapped back at his frequent critic in a way only Baker can…

Our take

Cowherd might have a point about Browns fans being too optimistic about the team and the upcoming season, but his spiteful justification for why he thinks so comes across as that of a whiny professional hater.
