Quarterback Baker Mayfield discusses intense altercation against Texans: Bucs maintain no tolerance for disrespect
In a thrilling Week 2 matchup, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, led by their new quarterback Baker Mayfield, secured a hard-fought victory against the Houston Texans. Mayfield showcased his skills, not only through his arm but also with his legs, as he ran for a first down in the fourth quarter.
Mayfield's impressive performance saw him complete 32 out of 45 passes for 382 yards, five touchdowns, and zero interceptions, improving the Buccaneers' record to 2-0 for the season. This marks a strong start for the team, who are currently sitting at the top of their division.
The Buccaneers' next challenge comes in Week 3, as they face the struggling New York Jets, who are yet to secure a win in the 2025 NFL season. The Jets have allowed at least 30 points in both of their games against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills, raising concerns for their defensive capabilities.
During the game against the Texans, there was a moment of tension between Mayfield and New Orleans Saints defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson. The two exchanged words, but the incident seemed to be resolved, with Gardner-Johnson responding to Mayfield's post on Instagram, saying "Boy this cute but still ringless." Mayfield responded with "Built different. 10 toes down" as the caption for one of the photos.
