Memphis Southmen WFL (1974 to the end in 1975) ▪︎ With Csonka and Kiick. (Bad decision ?) In 1975 season. - 3 TDs ? 25 Rec. 422 yards.
IN MARCH 1974, he was selected by the Toronto Northmen in the second round (23rd overall) of the WFL Pro Draft. Prior to the start of the 1974 season, Warfield and teammates Larry Csonka and Jim Kiick made what were then surprising decisions. They left the Dolphins at the conclusion of the season for what appeared to be more lucrative pastures with the Northmen of World Football League (WFL). The Northmen then moved to Memphis, Tennessee, without playing a game in Toronto, and became the Memphis Southmen. Warfield played the 1975 season with the Memphis Southmen, catching 25 passes for 422 yards and three touchdowns.
Return to Browns and retirement.
After the DISSOULUTION OF THE WFL AFTER THE 1975 SEASON. Warfield told reporters he would be interested in rejoining the Browns if the Southmen were not admitted into the NFL. The Southmen were refused admittance, and Warfield was ultimately persuaded to rejoin by Browns owner Art Modell, who felt Warfield would be a valuable asset as both a receiver and in public relations. Warfield played his final two pro football seasons in Cleveland, catching 38 passes for 613 yards and six touchdowns in 1976 and 18 passes for 251 yards and two touchdowns in 1977. In his eight years with the BROWNS. he caught 271 passes for 5,210 yards and 52 touchdowns. for an average of 33 rec. 313 yards 6.5 TDs. per each year played for Cleveland.

The problem was two fold. The team sucked. And the guys in charge sucked. These guys wanted a contract and Sashi Baffoon said, We were 4-12 with you. We won't be any worse without you. - We are soo much better off with Stef and Berry. (human beings though they may be)
