It's been quite a journey for Baker Mayfield these past few years, but he's finally found a home in Tampa Bay and proved it by signing a three-year deal worth $100 million with the Buccaneers earlier this offseason. It was a remarkable moment for Mayfield considering he had been traded and cut before hitting the free agent market last offseason and was forced to settle for a one-year prove-it deal. But prove it he did, and now Mayfield is firmly entrenched as Tom Brady's successor in Florida.
If anything it certainly gives Mayfield a lot to reflect on, given he went from franchise savior to wandering journeyman to solid veteran in a rather short span of time. This week he was looking back on his 2021 season with the Cleveland Browns on Barstool Sports' Pardon My Take and had a fairly blunt assessment of one particular decision he made during his final campaign in Cleveland.
