Mayfield, who played under Stefanski with the Browns from 2020-21, took issue with that comment before putting Stefanski on blast.
“Failed is quite the reach pal,” Mayfield wrote. “Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage. Can’t wait to see you twice a year, Coach.”
Mayfield has found success in Tampa Bay, earning back-to-back Pro Bowl selections in 2023 and 2024 while helping the Buccaneers capture consecutive division titles. The team limped to an 8-9 record this season and missed the playoffs.
The Falcons hired Stefanski on Saturday to replace the fired Raheem Morris as their new head coach. They finished 8-9 in the 2025 season.
