The Tampa Bay Bucs have signed a one-year $8.5 million deal with Baker Mayfield, according to FOX Sports.
According to FOX Sports, Tampa Bay reached an agreement with Mayfield for a one-year deal with up to $8.5 million, bringing in a veteran to compete for the job with Kyle Trask during training camp.
However, Mayfield’s second season was a major setback. He threw nearly as many interceptions as touchdowns and seemed to be on a different page of the playbook than star receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Cleveland went 6-10 and fired coach Freddie Kitchens. The 2020 season signaled a turnaround as Mayfield led the Browns back to relevance with their first postseason appearance since 2003. He thrived in first-year coach Kevin Stefanski’s offense, throwing 20 TD passes and just three interceptions in his last 12 games.
Mayfield sat out the finale and had surgery soon after. Browns general manager Andrew Berry said he expected Mayfield to bounce back as the team’s starter in 2022, but everything changed with the pursuit of Deshaun Watson.He was traded to Carolina in July 2022. The Browns continued paying $10.5 million of Mayfield’s $18.8 million contract for the following season, according to the Associated Press.
