Baker Mayfield’s first game with the Rams was impressive, as the quarterback led a double-digit comeback against the Raiders just 48 hours after the team claimed him off waivers.
Mayfield was clearly fired up, as he appeared to get a new lease on his career with this move to Los Angeles. And the Rams, who lost six games in a row entering Thursday and have dealt with various injuries to their stars, seem excited to add the quarterback for the stretch run.
In the locker room after the game, coach Sean McVay gave a game ball to Mayfield, and after getting mobbed by his new teammates, the fifth-year player gave a speech.
