Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield made a hilarious attempt to flee from police officers, and it did not work out well for him.
Mayfield was arrested for public intoxication last month in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and you have to see how it went down. For some reason, Mayfield tried to run away from a few Fayetteville police officers, and he really didn’t get very far.
Watch the video and you’ll see Mayfield’s pathetic attempt to flee come to a screeching halt when he was tackled by an officer.

Eric Bailey of the Tulsa World provided some great quotes/highlights stemming from the arrest, and they make the whole ordeal even more entertaining.

Mayfield, who had soy sauce on his hoodie, asked more than once "what did I do wrong?" Not confrontational, almost asking self that question

Mayfield sprinted only for about three steps before being tackled hard against a wall. "I'm done." #Sooners

Mayfield: "I didn't do anything. Are you kidding me?"
Officer:"No, you are just a dumb ### who tried to run."— Eric Bailey (@EricBaileyTW) March 10, 2017
The officer summed up the entire sequence of events perfectly with that one-liner.
