According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Mayfield is dealing with a low-grade sprain, confirming initial optimism from the team\u2019s medical staff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Mayfield exited the game after taking a hard hit, raising concerns about the severity of the injury and his availability for the coming week. The MRI results now suggest that the injury is relatively minor, and the organization is hopeful he\u2019ll be able to practice in some capacity as preparations begin for next week\u2019s matchup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The veteran quarterback has been a stabilizing force for the Buccaneers\u2019 offense ever since signing on with the team a few seasons ago, and the team has fed off his competitiveness and fight for the NFC South title. While his status will continue to be monitored, early indications point toward Mayfield having a realistic chance to suit up, giving Tampa Bay a much-needed boost as they push forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield received promising news on Monday following an MRI on the left shoulder&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59612,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[135,11689,2989,137,136],"class_list":["post-59611","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers-injuries","tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers-news","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59611","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59611"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59611\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59612"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59611"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59611"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
