By Max Scoli
Baker Mayfield may be a football player, but maybe he should take up baseball after the way he slid into his wife's direct messages.
Curious about how Emily Wilkinson and Mayfield got together? Well, the Cleveland Browns quarterback took it upon himself to repeatedly follow and unfollow her on Instagram until she noticed. Then, he made his move.

Shooters shoot, I guess...
On their first date, Mayfield made quite an impression on Wilkinson, who stated that the personality of the former Heisman Trophy winner completely surprised her:
“I was assuming he’d be the typical playboy athlete,” said Wilkinson. Instead, "Mayfield spent their entire first date peppering her with questions about herself, her family, her plans for the future."

What a ladies man.

The happy couple just got married this month, and with a beautiful woman permenantly by his side, there is no telling what he can accomplish in the NFL.
Mayfield has already made an impression on the entire league in his first season, winning Rookie of the Year honors and breaking nearly every record in the books for a rookie Browns quarterback.
With a storied football career ahead of him, along with an absolute knockout of a wife, life doesn't get much better.
