Baker Mayfield
QB - TB
2023 Outlook
Baker Mayfield has agreed to a one-year, $8.5 million deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers according to Tom Pelissero.
Fantasy Impact
Mayfield will get the opportunity to compete for the starting quarterback job with Kyle Trask for a Tampa Bay team transitioning after Tom Brady announced his retirement at the end of the 2022 season. The quarterback did enough at the end of the season as the starter for the Los Angeles Rams to receive new life once again.
The Buccaneers are considered a strong contender for Baker Mayfield, per Rick Stroud.
Fantasy Impact
Mayfield is reported to have a few suitors once free agency officially begins. The Buccaneers are rumored to be interested in a few quarterbacks to pair with Kyle Trask, as they look to determine who will lead the Tampa Bay offense in 2023.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers reportedly have interest in signing veteran quarterback Baker Mayfield.
Fantasy Impact
Mayfield appeared in 12 games total between Carolina and Los Angeles last season. Mayfield looked incredibly comfortable in the Rams’ offense, completing 63.6% of his passes, registering 850 yards, and four touchdowns in five games. With the Buccaneers in a state of transition at quarterback, a veteran like Mayfield could provide some stability to the offense and fantasy options in 2023.
Baker Mayfield completed 11 of 19 pass attempts for 132 yards and no touchdowns in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.
Fantasy Impact
Coming off a 51-point performance last week against Denver, Mayfield and the Rams struggled to get anything going against an improved Chargers defense. The QB had little time to operate in the pocket and lost a fumble on a strip sack. The Rams close the season against the Seattle Seahawks.
Baker Mayfield completed 24 of his 28 pass attempts for 230 yards and two touchdowns in a win over Denver.
Fantasy Impact
Mayfield found Tyler Higbee twice for his two passing touchdowns in a route of the Broncos Sunday. Mayfield is playing well since joining the Rams and should be viewed as a high-end QB2 heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Chargers.
