Mayfield, 26, tore the labrum in his non-throwing shoulder during Week 2's 31-21 win over the Houston Texans but played through the injury before re-injuring it in Week 6's 37-14 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

He missed three non-consecutive games through the rest of the season and played with a shoulder harness. Cleveland sat him in the season finale in favor of Case Keenum.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Wednesday the surgery carries a four-month recovering window and that Mayfield should be ready for training camp next season. The Browns have already expressed that Mayfield will be their starting QB for 2022.
