## Resource

Baker Mayfield just locked in a historic three-year, $165 million deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — the biggest contract in franchise history, averaging $55 million annually and placing him among the NFL’s top-paid QBs. After months of negotiations, the Bucs’ ownership praised his leadership, community impact, and on-field success, including two Pro Bowl nods and playoff appearances since joining in 2023. The extension, finalized before training camp, eliminates any offseason distractions and keeps Mayfield and his family rooted in Tampa. His journey to Tampa began as a free agent after stints with the Panthers, Rams, and his first four seasons with Cleveland, where he was drafted first overall.
