Offensive guru Mike McDaniel offered his opinion on Baker Mayfield prior to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' joint practice with the Miami Dolphins this week.
Despite only being a head coach for a few seasons, Mike McDaniel has developed a reputation for being one of the brightest offensive minds in the game. His success as an offensive coordinator in San Francisco combined with the high-octane offense he now leads in Miami has earned him that notoriety.
“I think he is a galvanizer of teammates. I think he brings people together and there’s certainly a lot of energy when he makes a play from the whole team. So you can tell what he means to this team and why he is having success.” Opinions and conversation hold very little weight in the NFL, especially during the offseason — it’s your play on the field that matters. But based on the comments made by the Miami Dolphins head coach, it’s obvious that he has a lot of respect for Baker Mayfield and how he’s carried himself since taking over the reins in Tampa Bay.
The two teams will square off in their final preseason game of the season on Friday evening at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. That will also be the first opportunity we’ll get to see Baker Mayfield in live game action prior to the regular season kicking off in just a few short weeks.Prior to joining BucsGameday and Sports Illustrated, Collin's written content was provided through Bucs Banter, and NFL Draft Lounge.
