Mayfield is a sit due to erratic 'hero ball' play and high sack rates.

Baker Mayfield is currently playing 'hero ball,' holding the ball too long and scrambling excessively, which has led to a high sack rate. The source advises against starting him, suggesting he should focus on shorter, high-percentage throws.
