Baker Mayfield led the Rams to a dominant victory over the dismal Denver Broncos. But the post-game celebration took an unexpected turn. It’s unsurprising that the Broncos are vexed by their lack of success. But instead of converting that into aggression on the field, one particular player gave in to his intrusive thoughts.

Frustration seems to be the overall mood, not just the Broncos Nation but also the team itself. An interaction after their loss caught the eyes of fans and even interrupted Mayfield’s interview. Thankfully, the QB had quick reflexes.

Tracy Wolfson from CBS was mid-interview with winning QB Baker Mayfield when an unexpected scuffle broke loose. But the QB was quick to warn Wolfson, and the two moved out of harm’s way. Broncos defensive end Randy Gregory had some unfinished business with the Rams’ Oday Aboushi. The two were former teammates at the Dallas Cowboys. Aboushi was pictured shaking hands with another player when Gregory ambushed him. The duo exchanged words before the latter threw at the lineman.

Mayfield has made himself home at the Rams

The Denver Broncos’ season has gone from bad to worse. Russell Wilson has not given the Broncos Nation a glimpse of anything above mediocrity. On the other hand, after a series of unfortunate events, Baker Mayfield has finally found redemption. Despite being a recent addition to the Rams squad, Mayfield has made himself comfortable in Sean McVay’s offense.

One user commented on the QB’s performance boost by saying, “This is the Baker Mayfield we were promised.” Indeed, Mayfield has looked quite unstoppable in the brief period he’s been with the Rams. There’s no doubt that he will look to building his game for whatever is awaiting him in the future.
