Baker Mayfield is frustrated as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sit on the sidelines while he’s in the final year of his $100 million contract — a deal that’s gone unextended despite his stellar play, leadership, and Pro Bowl appearances since stepping in for Tom Brady. He sees himself as a franchise QB and believes he’s earned a new deal, especially after nearly making the MVP race last season. Though money isn’t his main drive, he’s determined not to let the contract drama distract him — and if he keeps playing at this level, he could be looking at a massive payday in the $50-55M range annually. Meanwhile, fellow key player Vita Vea is also navigating his own contract limbo.
