Tom Brady and Baker Mayfield seem to be developing quite a friendship, which is something Cleveland Browns fans will have to process in their own way.
It all started when Mayfield hosted a football camp for kids in Cleveland. After a clip from the camp was shared on Twitter of Mayfield dancing with the campers, a fan asked how many of them he could take if they turned on him.
The quarterback replied, “Which age group? As a general thought, I say at least 50+.”

That's when Tom Brady got in on the fun, cracking, “You’re selling yourself short. Gotta escape the pocket, reset, and take out 8-10 at a time.”

This isn't the first time these two have interacted. They were spotted hanging out at the Kentucky Derby recently. They might be from two very different generations, but they clearly get along well.
While Mayfield is just beginning to build his career and Tom Brady has six shiny Super Bowl trophies, they are similarly fierce competitors. Both quarterbacks are natural born leaders with a commanding presence, and they hate to lose more than anything.
Tom Brady is coming off yet another Super Bowl title as he prepares to enter his age-42 season. Baker Mayfield showed plenty of flashes of brilliance as a rookie, and he'll now need to follow it up in a heavily anticipated sophomore campaign. There's a ton of buzz around this year's Browns team, and there will be a lot of pressure for Mayfield to deliver. If he could pick up some tips from Brady on how to handle the expectations, that would be great for everybody.
