Rookie’s 58-yard field goal gives Browns win over Panthers, Mayfield

Rookie Cade York kicked a go-ahead 58-yard field goal with 8 seconds left, Kareem Hunt scored two touchdowns and the visiting Cleveland Browns spoiled Baker Mayfield’s bid for vengeance with a 26-24 win over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Former Georgia Bulldog Nick Chubb ran for 141 yards and Hunt had 70 total yards from scrimmage as the Browns won their season opener for the first time since 2004.

Mayfield overcame a slow start by leading the Panthers back from a 13-point fourth quarter deficit, running for a 7-yard touchdown and finding Robbie Anderson for a 75-yard touchdown strike. He then led the Panthers on a 64-yard drive in seven plays to set up Eddy Pineiro’s field goal with 1:13 left.

York’s winning kick was the longest for the franchise since 1984.

Mayfield, who spent four seasons with Cleveland prior to being traded in July, finished 16 of 27 for 235 yards.

(At) Dolphins 20, Patriots 7: Tua Tagovailoa passed for 270 yards and a touchdown for the Dolphins. Mike Mcdaniel, hired as the Dolphins’ coach in February, extended Miami’s winning streak against the Patriots to four games. Tyreek Hill, making his Dolphins debut, led Miami’s receivers with eight receptions for 94 yards.

(At) Commanders 28, Jaguars 22: Carson Wentz bounced back from throwing interceptions on consecutive plays early in the fourth quarter, completing his third and fourth touchdowns to give Washington a comeback victory.

Wentz finished 27 of 41 for 313 yards. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence, who was intercepted with 1:10 to go, went 24 of 42 for 275 yards, with a TD pass to James Robinson and the pick. Robinson also ran for a touchdown.
