EXPLAINED: Buccaneers qb baker mayfield gets encouraging update on shoulder injury | Vintage Vibes

Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield exited Sunday night’s game against the Rams after suffering a shoulder injury on the final play before halftime while launching a pass downfield. Mayfield crumpled in pain after putting everything he had into the throw, and he did not return for the second half.

After the game, Todd Bowles said that Mayfield had sustained a left shoulder sprain, though the severity of it wasn’t clear. Tampa Bay sent him in for an MRI which revealed it was a low-grade sprain, potentially leaving the door open for him to play next week against the Cardinals, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
