Baker Mayfield had a rough week.
On Monday night, he had an absolutely abysmal game against the 49ers and got mocked by Nick Bosa, who recreated Mayfield’s plant-flagging celebration from two years ago after a sack.

Mayfield would later get accused by Richard Sherman of not shaking hands before the game but was later vindicated by video evidence.

Sherman would later apologize to Mayfield for stirring up controversy for no reason.

“It’s definitely my bad,” “I never want anybody to deal with some shit that they didn’t do. And so, you know, the questions that he’s gonna get and the annoying, nonsense questions about some stuff that happened in a game that’s already been done, you know, sure he’ll get an apology for that. I’ll probably reach out to him via text or social media to actually get ahold of him and talk to him in person, I mean on the phone. But, yeah, because that sucks. But yeah, yeah. He definitely deserves an apology, and my bad on that
Mayfield spoke to the media today and had a pretty fun response to the whole Richard Sherman “Handshake gate” by referencing that time he was infamously recorded trying to run away from police.
Baker Mayfield on the Richard Sherman handshake situation: “I know what I did. But that’s the one time the camera recording me has gone in my favor.”
Amazing 😂😂.

Baker also had a sick burn for Nick Bosa.
