His journey from walk-on to Heisman Trophy winner and then to an NFL starter is marked by resilience, leadership, and a strong competitive spirit. ### Early Life and High School Career Baker Reagan Mayfield was born on April 14, 1995, in Austin, Texas. He grew up in a football-loving family, with his father, James, having played college football. Mayfield attended Lake Travis High School in Austin, where he played as a quarterback. He led the Lake Travis Cavaliers to a state championship and compiled a 25-2 record as a starter. Despite his high school success, Mayfield was not heavily recruited by major college programs, partly due to concerns about his height and size. ### College Career #### Texas Tech (2013) Baker Mayfield began his college career at Texas Tech University in 2013 as a walk-on. Remarkably, he became the first true freshman walk-on quarterback to start a season opener for a Division I school. Mayfield performed well, throwing for 413 yards and four touchdowns in his debut game. However, after suffering an injury and facing uncertainty about his future role on the team, he decided to transfer at the end of his freshman season. #### Transfer to Oklahoma (2014) Mayfield transferred to the University of Oklahoma, where he again walked on to the football team. Due to NCAA transfer rules, he had to sit out the 2014 season. This period allowed him to learn the Sooners system under head coach Bob Stoops and offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley. #### Oklahoma (2015-2017) Mayfield took over as Oklahoma's starting quarterback in 2015, quickly establishing himself as one of the top quarterbacks in college football. His time at Oklahoma was marked by numerous accolades and record-breaking performances. 1. **2015 Season**: In his first season as the Sooners' starting quarterback, Mayfield led Oklahoma to an 11-2 record and a Big 12 Championship. The team earned a spot in the College Football Playoff, where they lost to Clemson in the Orange Bowl. Mayfield threw for 3,700 yards and 36 touchdowns that season, earning him widespread recognition. 2. **2016 Season**: Mayfield continued his stellar play in 2016, leading Oklahoma to another Big 12 Championship. He finished the season with 3,965 passing yards, 40 touchdowns, and only eight interceptions. He finished third in Heisman Trophy voting and was named a finalist for several other major awards. 3. **2017 Season**: The pinnacle of Mayfields college career came in 2017. He threw for 4,627 yards, 43 touchdowns, and just six interceptions, leading Oklahoma to a 12-2 record and another Big 12 Championship. The Sooners reached the College Football Playoff, where they lost a thrilling Rose Bowl game to Georgia in double overtime. Mayfields performances earned him the Heisman Trophy, making him the sixth player from Oklahoma to win the prestigious award. He also won the Maxwell Award, the Walter Camp Award, and was named the AP Player of the Year. During his three seasons at Oklahoma, Mayfield set several NCAA and school records, including the NCAA record for passer efficiency rating and the FBS record for the most consecutive games with at least two touchdown passes. He finished his college career with 14,607 passing yards and 131 passing touchdowns. ### NFL Career #### Cleveland Browns (2018-2021) Baker Mayfield was selected by the Cleveland Browns as the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, making him the highest-drafted walk-on player in NFL history. 1. **2018 Season**: Mayfield made his NFL debut in Week 3, coming off the bench to lead the Browns to their first win in 19 games. He went on to start the remainder of the season, finishing with 3,725 passing yards, 27 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions. Mayfield set the NFL rookie record for touchdown passes (27), earning him the PFWA Rookie of the Year award. 2. **2019 Season**: Expectations were high for Mayfield and the Browns entering the 2019 season. However, the team struggled under first-year head coach Freddie Kitchens, and Mayfields performance was inconsistent. He threw for 3,827 yards, 22 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions as the Browns finished with a disappointing 6-10 record. 3. **2020 Season**: Mayfield bounced back in 2020 under new head coach Kevin Stefanski. He led the Browns to an 11-5 record and their first playoff appearance since 2002. Mayfield threw for 3,563 yards, 26 touchdowns, and only eight interceptions during the regular season. In the playoffs, he helped the Browns win their first postseason game since 1994, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round before losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Divisional Round. 4. **2021 Season**: Mayfields 2021 season was marred by injuries, including a torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder, which he suffered early in the season. Despite playing through the injury, his performance was inconsistent, and the Browns finished with an 8-9 record, missing the playoffs. Mayfield threw for 3,010 yards, 17 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions. After the season, it was announced that the Browns would seek a new quarterback, leading to Mayfields eventual departure. #### Carolina Panthers and Los Angeles Rams (2022) In July 2022, Mayfield was traded to the Carolina Panthers. He won the starting job out of training camp but struggled with consistency and injuries, leading to his benching after Week 5. In December 2022, he was released by the Panthers and quickly claimed off waivers by the Los Angeles Rams. Mayfield made an immediate impact with the Rams, leading a thrilling comeback win over the Las Vegas Raiders just days after joining the team. He finished the season with the Rams, showing flashes of his potential but also the challenges of adjusting to a new system midseason. #### Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2023-Present) In March 2023, Mayfield signed a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, stepping in as the team's starting quarterback following Tom Brady's retirement. As the Buccaneers' starter, Mayfield looked to revitalize his career and prove himself as a capable NFL quarterback. ### Playing Style and Legacy Baker Mayfield is known for his strong arm, quick release, and ability to make plays on the move. He is also recognized for his leadership qualities and competitive fire, traits that have both endeared him to fans and occasionally led to controversies. Throughout his career, Mayfield has shown resilience in the face of adversity, both in college and in the NFL. While his NFL journey has had its ups and downs, Mayfield remains a polarizing figure with the potential to make a significant impact on the Buccaneers and the league. His college legacy is secure, as he is remembered as one of the greatest quarterbacks in Oklahoma Sooners history and one of the most successful walk-on players ever. Mayfields career is a testament to the power of determination and self-belief, qualities that have defined his path from an overlooked recruit to a Heisman Trophy winner and NFL starting quarterback. ******** It's the perfect addition to any Football or Cleveland Browns fan's, OU Sooners, Baker Mayfield fan's, (etc) memorabilia collection.
