The radio veteran said that Cleveland Browns supporters surely want their former quarterback back after Mayfield led the Los Angeles Rams to a remarkable comeback win over the Las Vegas Raiders.

"Some Browns supporters are saying 'come home, come home, come back,'" Michaels remarked.

Michaels appears to have missed that one. Browns and other club fans have tweeted that the Browns will never bring him back.

Baker Mayfield started for Cleveland for four years. The former No. 1 overall pick guided them to their second playoff berth since 1999 and their first postseason win since the mid-1990s.

The team has abandoned Mayfield. They mortgaged their future for Deshaun Watson and dealt Mayfield to the Carolina Panthers for pennies on the dollar.

The Browns and Mayfield probably don't want each other.

Mayfield playing Week 1 for the Rams or returning to the Browns?
