Good for Baker Mayfield. The man really struggled by the time he left the Browns, was run off the Panthers and didn't stick around after a short stint with the Rams.
He's been through some tough times in the NFL after being the first overall pick in 2018. The perception around him was that he was on a bullet train to being a bust.
While it's still debatable whether he's a bust, the idea that he can't be a solid starting QB appears to have been successfully erased.
He took a Bucs team to the playoffs, put up very respectable numbers and now might land a contract in the ballpark of $40 million annually.
A resurgent Baker Mayfield is here, and it sounds like he's riding it out with the Bucs moving forward. Is it a smart move? Let me know at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
