Baker Reagan Mayfield (born April 14, 1995)[1] is an American football quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League (NFL). Following a stint with the Texas Tech Red Raiders, Mayfield played college football for the Oklahoma Sooners, winning the Heisman Trophy as a senior and was the first walk-on player to win the award.[2][3][4][5] He was selected first overall by the Cleveland Browns in the 2018 NFL draft.
Mayfield set the NFL rookie quarterback record for passing touchdowns during his first season, along with ending a 19-game winless streak for the Browns in his debut. His most successful season was in 2020 when he led the Browns to their first playoff appearance since 2002 and first playoff victory since 1994. Due to inconsistent play and conflict with Browns management, Mayfield was traded to the Carolina Panthers in 2022. Following further inconsistent play and injuries, he was released by the Panthers near the end of the season and played the rest of the year with the Los Angeles Rams. Mayfield joined the Buccaneers ahead of the 2023 season, whom he led to a division title and a playoff victory in the same season, along with being selected to his first Pro Bowl.
