Baker Mayfield is back in prime time.
Days after taking over the Rams offense early in Thursday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, the Los Angeles quarterback is slated to start for his new team on Monday. Head coach Sean McVay confirmed on Tuesday that John Wolford is still dealing with a neck injury, meaning that Mayfield's in line to start against the Green Bay Packers.
It's a remarkable circumstance for the former No. 1 pick, who was traded by the Cleveland Browns to the Panthers last offseason then released before finishing a full season with Carolina.
