NEW ORLEANS, LA (SNN-TV) – Baker Mayfield might have landed with the right team at the right time. At least that’s how it looks four games into the 2018 top overall draft pick’s first season with his fourth team.
Mayfield threw three touchdown passes for Tampa Bay, Derek Carr’s surprise return from a shoulder injury did little to help New Orleans’ anemic offense, and the Buccaneers beat the Saints 26-9 yesterday.
Mayfield completed 25 of 32 passes for 246 yards including TDs to Cade Otton, Trey Palmer and Deven Thompkins as the 3-1 Bucs took over first place in the NFC South.
After a bye week, the Buccaneers will host Detroit at Raymond James Stadium on Oct. 15th.
