Baker Mayfield's frustration boils over as he walks out of interview session

The losing is beating Baker Mayfield.

Annoyed with a reporter's line of questioning about a drive at the end of the first half in last week's loss at New England, the fiery Cleveland Browns quarterback abruptly ended his weekly interview session on Wednesday and stormed off.

Mayfield, who is tied for the NFL lead with 12 interceptions, grew increasingly agitated when a reporter asked him about a failed two-minute drive in a 27-13 loss to the Patriots. The Browns were called for a penalty, which Mayfield said prevented them from moving the ball.

"Was I happy with the drive? No, we didn't score points," Mayfield chirped. "That's the dumbest question you could ask. What?"

Mayfield then disgustedly walked away from the lectern and toward his locker.

Soon after, the 2018 No. 1 overall pick went on Twitter to explain his exasperation. The Browns (2-5) haven't played up to enormous expectations and have lost three games in a row.

"Everybody wants to hear the truth until they actually get it," Mayfield wrote. "I am who I am and always have been. Don't call it emotional when it's convenient and then passion when it fits. I care about winning, so yeah I'm frustrated.

Former Vikings cornerback Josh Robinson abruptly retired, leaving Jacksonville in the middle of his eighth NFL season.

Robinson told coach Doug Marrone about his decision before the team's morning meeting. The Jaguars, who travel to London to play Houston this week, responded by placing Robinson on the reserve/retired list.

Robinson had played in every game this season, all on special teams. He is the third Jacksonville player to retire this year, following veteran linebacker Telvin Smith and rookie safety Zedrick Woods.

Washington left tackle Trent Williams failed his physical because of discomfort trying to put his helmet on, interim coach Bill Callahan said.

Williams, who ended a holdout Tuesday, previously had a growth on his head removed, and the dispute that led to his holdout centered on the medical staff and handling of that situation.

• Buffalo coach Sean McDermott defended the team's decision to stand pat at the trade deadline by raising memories of what he called "irresponsible decisions" made by past regimes. Though McDermott didn't mention names, it's clear he was referring to former Bills General Manager Doug Whaley, who was fired a day after completing the 2017 draft.

• Tampa Bay promoted tight end Jordan Leggett from the practice squad to the active roster and placed linebacker Jack Cichy (Hill-Murray) on injured reserve because of an elbow injury.
