Only three quarterbacks in NFL history have passed for 4,000 yards and rushed for 500 yards in a single season: Cam Newton (2011), Russell Wilson (2015) and Deshaun Watson (2018). In Week 9 of last season, Freddie Kitchens took over the play-calling duties for the Cleveland Browns. From Week 9 out last season, QB Baker Mayfield led the NFL in deep completions per game.
