After Pentagon, Baker Mayfield confirms UFO sighting in the States

Baker Mayfield is known for his wacky commercials and outspoken attitude. His brazen personality is what divides Browns fans at times.

Some claim his arrogance will be his downfall while others compare him to other outspoken players such as Tom Brady, Marshawn Lynch, Dez Bryant, and even Browns teammate Odell Beckham Jr.

Once again, Mayfield has made headlines for unconventional reasons. The 25-year-old took to Twitter on Wednesday night to report a potential UFO sighting while he was on his way home from dinner along with his wife Emily Wilkinson.
