Baker Mayfield lost his mind — and maybe even pieces of his forehead and scalp — following the Panthers’ win on Thursday … headbutting his helmeted teammates — repeatedly!!!
Carolina’s backup QB performed the insane act just seconds before his squad officially beat the Falcons, 25-15, on “Thursday Night Football” … and the move was so weird, even his own teammates appeared to be caught off guard.
Check out the footage from the game’s broadcast — you can see Baker, in nothing but a baseball cap, slamming his head into his teammates’ over and over again as they came off the field.
Nearly every guy that he hit looked at him with a “what’re you doing, bro” expression … but Mayfield didn’t seem to care.
Of course, the Panthers had only won one game since September prior to Thursday night — and Baker’s had a brutal year, getting hurt and then being benched in favor of P.J. Walker — so maybe he didn’t quite remember how to act following a victory?
Either way … perhaps just go for the handshake next time, Bake.
