Baker Mayfield activated off reserve list ahead of Packers clash
Baker Mayfield missed the Cleveland Browns' defeat to the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday but is set to return on Saturday.
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield has been activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list meaning he could play in Saturday's game against the Green Bay Packers.
The Browns QB has been on the covid-19 list since December, missing Monday's 16-14 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.
Mayfield is eligible to play on Saturday due to the 10-day rule without clearing testing protocols.
The 26-year-old has completed 216 of 344 passes this season with a completion rate 62.8 percent for 2,603 yards and 13 touchdowns with seven interceptions.
Nick Mullens deputized in Mayfield's absence against the Raiders but only managed one touchdown pass in the loss.
The Browns are currently 7-7 and fourth in the wide-open AFC North, while the Packers have clinched the NFC North divisional title with a 10-3 record.
