From the article

Mayfield has started four games and has labored in nearly all of them, throwing for just three touchdowns and two interceptions, absorbing 13 sacks, and playing poorly under pressure, with a measly 4.6 yards per attempt average when the heat is close by. Last week in his return from injury, he threw the ball just 11 times for 64 yards, and his mobility seems to be limited as he's recovering.

Mayfield has started four games in 2026 and labored in nearly all of them, throwing for just three touchdowns and two interceptions while absorbing 13 sacks. He plays poorly under pressure, averaging only 4.6 yards per attempt when the heat is close. In his return from injury last week, he threw just 11 times for 64 yards with limited mobility as he recovers. His numbers took a nosedive in 2025 after receiving a contract extension, and he has been either injured or a shadow of himself.
