Bucs’ Mayfield gamble hangs on a high-stakes price tag

With training camp approaching, the Buccaneers are reportedly in no rush to extend Baker Mayfield, betting they’ll top any competing offer in a veteran-QB market that could push APYs past $40 million. Mayfield’s willingness to push for more could test Tampa Bay’s leverage, potentially leaving them to rethink at QB if he tests the market or leaves, while behind him the roster options include Jalon Daniels, Jake Browning and Connor Bazelak.
