Bucs' resolve to be tested by Lamar Jackson, Ravens

TAMPA, Fla. -- Fresh out of the injury tent and trying to hold a four-point lead over the New Orleans Saints in Week 6, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield lowered his shoulder and hurled himself into cornerback Marshon Lattimore.

It was the Bucs' franchise QB trying to set the tone as running back Bucky Irving took the handoff for a 31-yard gain. Mayfield would go on to find tight end Cade Otton five plays later for an 8-yard touchdown.

On the play where he got hurt, Mayfield spun and ducked his way out of would-be sacks by cornerback Alontae Taylor, but he fell on his stomach after his foot was caught behind by defensive end Carl Granderson.
