Baker Mayfield will start his first game for the Carolina Panthers versus his old team, the Cleveland Browns, in their season opener. For the quarterback, it was a tumultuous offseason as the Browns traded for Deshaun Watson this offseason.
Fans will now have some new apparel to wear at the game, thanks to Mayfield. His new t-shirt takes a savage shot at his former team.
The Panthers quarterback has officially licensed t-shirts that read "Off the leash," while also noting the Week One contest between the Panthers and Browns as "One day only."

The shirt also displays a smiling Mayfield in a cowboy hat with his well-known No. 6, along with a broken dog collar. The latter could be interpreted as a mention of the Browns' Dawg Pound.
Cleveland traded Baker to Carolina for a conditional 2024 fifth-round pick, which could be a fourth-round pick if playing time incentives are met. Panthers head coach Matt Rhule named the former Browns quarterback as their starter for the 2022 season after a preseason competition with Sam Darnold.
His new t-shirt will probably only add to what will be a riveting contest between the quarterback and the franchise he spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with.
