Bucs Could Plan Franchise Tag for Baker Mayfield Following Vita Vea Deal

Ari Meirov reported that the Bucs’ extension with Vita Vea means he won’t be a free agent next offseason and leaves the franchise tag fully available for Baker Mayfield, who is entering the final year of his contract. Baker has a three-year, $100M deal with the Bucs. “They won’t be in a scenario where one is guaranteed to get to the open market.”
