Would Browns Fans Actually Welcome Baker Mayfield Back to Cleveland?  
Podcast: The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima
Published On: Wed Jul 29 2026
Description: Lima and Nick Pedone react to Nick Wilson floating a Baker Mayfield reunion if the Browns land in the seven-win range next season and miss out on a top quarterback prospect, debating whether Todd Monken's arrival makes that fantasy any more realistic. Lima argues the Browns already told the fanbase how they felt about Baker in 2022, calls the recent nostalgia revisionist history, and points out Tampa Bay would only be able to let him walk if he plays poorly, since a strong season likely means a $55 million franchise tag. Both hosts trace the Baker saga back through Nick Chubb's contract holdout regret and the Myles Garrett tension that preceded the Deshaun Watson trade, with Lima declaring himself "out of the Baker business" while still craving any quarterback who gets the franchise off its current carousel.
