Former Buccaneers Coach Sends Blunt Message to Baker Mayfield After Injury
A former Buccaneers coach had a blunt message for Baker Mayfield after seeing his injury against the Vikings in Week 3.
In Week 3, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers encountered their third consecutive loss, which included the departure of their starting quarterback, Baker Mayfield, who suffered a dislocated thumb injury during a game against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie backup, Jalon Daniels, took over for Mayfield in the final plays of the game. Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles informed the media that Mayfield will be sidelined for a minimum of three weeks, leading rookie quarterback Daniels to step in.
Former Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians, speaking on the Up & Adams Show, expressed a stern message for Mayfield, urging him to stop scrambling around in the pocket and simply throw the ball away when in distress.
