Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield wore some special cleats Sunday against the Texans.
The NFL passer wore cleats during the pregame honoring Navy Corpsman Maxton Soviak, who was killed during the evacuation efforts in Afghanistan. Soviak was from Ohio, and died during the suicide bombing at the airport in Kabul. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

I know I drag Mayfield a lot when he behaves like an idiot, but there’s no question that this is a 100% pure class move.
Right now, there is a lot of negativity surrounding the country. There are a lot of people who seem down and out on America.

That’s an attitude and mentality that we need to shake. How do we do that? Well, in part we do it by remembering all the brave men and women who have worn the uniform of the USA.
Mayfield has a monster platform and he used it Sunday to shine a light on a true hero.

Props to Mayfield for honoring Maxton Soviak. That’s the kind of move that you will always see me applaud.
