Baker Mayfield Headshot

There's "optimism" that Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (thumb) will be able to return for next weekend's game vs. the Panthers, The Ringer's Tom Pelissero reports. Mayfield was off to a rough start before dislocating his right thumb in Week 3, averaging just 6.4 yards per attempt with 2 TDs and 2 INTs. He won't be a QB1 consideration next week, but his return will undoubtedly be good news for WRs Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin.
