Kyle Trask, John Wolford, AND Baker Mayfield?! How much bounty does one team need? Leave some talent for the rest of the league, boys, Kevin Crawford said.

It’s great to add another Super Bowl Champion to the roster. To have one at the QB position is amazing, Steve Trimborn said.

I’m still shocked a team like TB with all the weapons they have, haven’t shot higher for a starting QB and have Baker as a backup, Peter replied.

Bucs are treating their QB room in the same way that the Eagles treat their RB room, another fan replied.

For this upcoming 2023 season, Baker Mayfield will be the starter quarterback for the team.
