Mayfield has helped create a line of clothing merchandise , including T-shirts, hoodies and a flag bearing his image, with 100 percent of the sales proceeds going to Special Olympics Ohio.Mayfield was moved to do more charitable work after being involved in college with "Special Spectators," a program that allows seriously ill children to have an all-access, VIP-day at sporting events."It was a special bond, and when you do stuff like that, it makes a huge difference when you can build an actual relationship instead of just saying, 'Hey, I like this cause I want to throw money at it'," Mayfield said in a phone interview with The Associated Press."But there were relationships throughout that process that made a huge impact on me so my love for inspiring kids and competing in sports made Special Olympics a very easy choice to help out."Mayfield said being around children and young adults with disabilities and other challenges gives him perspective 鈥?and appreciation."I'm so blessed to be in the position that I'm in," he said. "It makes me think that there are no bad days.

He battled to win a starting job in high school and then walked on at both Texas Tech and Oklahoma before winning the Heisman Trophy.Obstacles are nothing new, and in some ways, he feels coming to Cleveland and helping the Browns was destined."I think everything happens for a reason," he said. "I love a good challenge. I think it's been everything that I've gone through, the lessons I've learned and the things that I'll continue to learn now that I'm here.
