Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, along with his wife and company, has sued the company belonging to his father over money he alleges was "improperly taken" from his accounts, according to Jonathan Greco of KOCO News.

"The lawsuit says a collection of interconnected entities with common ownership transferred more than $12 million from Mayfield to themselves without authorization, proper documentation or adequate accounting of the transactions," per Greco. "The defendants then allegedly used the money however they desired, 'including to fund acquisitions or to cover general operating expenses (such as to meet payroll obligations),' according to the lawsuit.
