Tampa Bay Buccaneers' quarterback Baker Mayfield has come a long way. He's come a long way in his NFL journey, but a long way just this year alone. When the Bucs signed Mayfield, he was viewed as 'bridge' quarterback who, best case scenario, would beat out Kyle Trask and set the Buccaneers up with a high draft pick to select his replacement.
It has been nearly a year since Mayfield joined the team and the narrative around his career has been completely rewritten. Not only was the former number one overall pick able to put up a career best season as an individual, but he led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to shocking team success.
