Buccaneers Evaluate QB Depth After Mayfield Injury

News summary

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield sustained a throwing hand contusion during Thursday's training camp but is considered day-to-day after scans showed no significant damage. He missed Friday's practice as a precaution, and there is no expectation of a prolonged absence. Backup quarterbacks Kyle Trask and Connor Bazelak are receiving more first-team reps during Mayfield's recovery, while reserve Michael Pratt is sidelined with a back injury. Mayfield, who threw for 4,500 yards and 41 touchdowns last season, remains crucial to Tampa Bay's hopes of extending their playoff run. Head coach Todd Bowles and the team are optimistic about Mayfield's quick return and overall health. This situation also offers the Buccaneers a chance to assess their quarterback depth ahead of the 2025 season.
