Baker Mayfield, the former first-round choice of the Cleveland Browns, seems to be slipping behind Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Trevor Arians.
The Bucs are aiming to replace future Hall of Famer Tom Brady in the starting lineup, and Mayfield signed with them this winter and seemed to be the front-runner. However, Mayfield will have to contend with Kyle Trask, a former second-round selection who has been quite active in training camp.
On August 2, Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales told reporters, “I think the experience that Baker brings — just playing in games, being in camps, going through installs — you know, you can see where the offence was gelling really well.” “We really depend on the snap timing, so Baker should have an advantage to begin with in terms of the fluidity of the offence.” However, it took Kyle a few days to get comfortable. Then, during the final two practices, Kyle truly demonstrated his abilities by extending the field with his arm, releasing the ball fast, and making choices. I am so thrilled about
Sports Illustrated reports that Trask is “standing out” because to his ability to get his passes “past the first level of defence” and that he has gone three days without an interception.
On August 3, David Harrison of SI’s BucsGameday stated, “[T]hose who changed the channel from the Mayfield vs. Trask training camp battle might want to give it another look.” And grab your preferred food and get comfortable, since this battle can go a long time.
According to Canales, who praised fourth-year quarterback John Wolford for signing as a free agent following three seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, there is also a third possibility.
Canales said, “Make sure John Wolford is included in the deal as well.” “He has his own way of making plays that he wants to create. We are building a really fantastic competitive cauldron in there because he also brings a lot to the table.
