The Cleveland Browns nearly pulled off the play of the NFL season on Sunday, but it was spoiled by a dropped pass.

In the second quarter, Baker Mayfield received the snap, handed it off to Nick Chubb, who reversed it to Jarvis Landry, who reversed it to Odell Beckham Jr.

The dropped pass came back to haunt the Browns — Mayfield threw an interception moments later.
