2024 Fantasy Outlook
After bouncing from Cleveland to Carolina to Los Angeles, Mayfield found a home in Tampa Bay last season, resurrecting his career with personal bests for passing yards (4,044, 9th in NFL) and TD passes (28, 7th) and leading the Buccaneers to the playoffs. While his accuracy was middle of the road (72.6 on-target percentage, 19th), Mayfield did a good job pushing the ball downfield. His average target depth was 8.5 yards, fifth in the league, as 12.0 percent of his attempts went beyond 20 yards, also fifth. His eight TD passes on deep attempts tied for second most. Offensive coordinator Dave Canales earned much of the credit for Baker's turnaround, but he's now Carolina's head coach, replaced by former Kentucky OC Liam Coen, who is expected to install a Sean McVay-derived offense (he coached under McVay with the Rams) only with perhaps more pre-snap motion. That would seem to work in favor of Mayfield, who signed a three-year deal with $50 million guaranteed in March. Wide receiver Mike Evans is also back on a new contract, and WR Chris Godwin, TE Cade Otton and RB Rachaad White (64 catches) return too. Mayfield doesn't run much, but a strong arm with 550-plus attempts was enough to make him fantasy's QB10 last year. Even if he doesn't get there this year, he's a solid option for two-QB leagues.

Four TDs in wild win
Mayfield completed 24 of 36 passes for 325 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions in the Buccaneers' 51-27 win over the Saints on Sunday. He also rushed three times for 29 yards.
ANALYSIS
Mayfield authored his third straight multi-touchdown tally while putting together his second 300-yard effort of the campaign as well. The veteran signal-caller also matched his season high in touchdown passes, connecting with Chris Godwin (four, 55 yards), Sean Tucker (36 yards) and Cade Otton (eight yards) for his quartet of scoring tosses. Mayfield did get shaken up at the end of a late third-quarter drive, but because the Buccaneers punted on the next play, he never missed a play and led a touchdown drive on the next possession. Mayfield's three interceptions were his most in a game during his season-plus Tampa Bay tenure, but he'll still head into a tough Week 7 home matchup against the Ravens on Monday night, Oct. 21 with plenty of momentum.

Mayfield's 2022 season highlight came three days after the Panthers waived him in December when he rallied the Rams to victory in a Thursday night game. He later completed 24 of 28 passes in a blowout win of Denver in Week 16, but he struggled the final two weeks in an injury-riddled offense and ultimately had little to show for another season that went nowhere. He finished bottom five of 33 qualified QBs in a slew of categories, including completion percentage (60.0), YPA (6.0), TD rate (3.0 percent) and on-target percentage (67.5). The 28-year-old signed with Tampa Bay in March to compete with Kyle Trask for the starting job. Coach Todd Bowles named Mayfield as the Week 1 starter after the second week of preseason action, opting for the known and mediocre over an inexperienced second-round pick. The Bucs have a decent (though aging) group of pass catchers to target and hired first-time offensive coordinator Dave Canales, but Mayfield's track record suggests he'll likely hold the group back.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pushing harder despite new deal
Mayfield, who signed a three-year, $100 million contract with the Buccaneers this offseason, feels just as driven now that he knows he has a long-term future with the team, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran signal-caller's deal isn't particularly long, but for a player like Mayfield whose future was in significant doubt following a 2022 campaign during which he played for two different teams, it gives him a sense of stability. Mayfield feels he can finally '"settle in" with Tampa Bay and notes that when he's had a chance to do that before, "good things happen." Mayfield will have the benefit of working with all his top pass catchers from his successful 2023, including running back Rachaad White, and also saw the team sign one-time college teammate Sterling Shepard this offseason.
