From the episode
the revelation that we got from a quarterback, you know, the, the series of his injury list included a sprained MCL and PCL in week two, uh, a, a contusion on his bicep and a tendon issue. So he like that left his arm entirely numb at times, his throwing arm, and then, uh, an AC joint sprain in his non-throwing shoulder.
STACKED’s take
Mayfield's injury list (MCL/PCL, tendon issue, AC sprain) affected play; source gives mulligan.
Baker Mayfield dealt with significant injuries last year that affected his performance: sprained MCL and PCL in week two, bicep contusion and tendon issue that left his throwing arm numb at times, and an AC joint sprain in his non-throwing shoulder. He has a pattern of forcing his way back on the field when his body cannot properly play the position, similar to how he lost his job in Cleveland. If he had taken a week off, the year might have gone differently. Despite these issues, the source is willing to give him a mulligan on the year and try again. He remains the most optimistic quarterback situation in the NFC South in terms of fantasy potential.
