Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield returned to Sunday’s game in the third quarter against the Pittsburgh Steelers after leaving late in the first half with an injury to his right (throwing) hand.

Mayfield exited with 0:07 left after he hit his hand on Steelers linebacker Bud Dupree’s helmet.

Mayfield headed to the locker room while backup Garrett Gilbert threw a pair of incompletions to close out the half.

Mayfield completed 10 of 17 passes for 98 yards and a 15-yard touchdown pass to running back Kareem Hunt. He returned for the Browns’ first series of the second half.

The score was tied 10-10 at halftime.
