Cleveland Browns star quarterback Baker Mayfield is known for his competitiveness. He constantly shows his love for the game on the field and always sets high standards for his play. However, even his level of competitiveness is no match for Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant.
In an interview with Zach Frydenlund of Complex, Mayfield spoke on Bryant's insane competitive drive and how he considers the five-time NBA champion to be the greatest competitor in sports history.
“He’s also, to me, the greatest competitor of all time. He wants to win at anything he does, and he doesn’t care who he offends. He’s doing that because that’s what he wants to do. And he truly loves winning and competing,” Mayfield said. “Those are the things that I took away when he was speaking to us is just truly how competitive he was. He had some stories from when he was on the Team USA basketball team and his career and not wanting to leave and wanting to have his own legacy and wanted to really create something for himself.”
