Echoing that sentiment is none other than one of the team’s co owners, Joel Glazer. He all but confirmed that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to be rewarding Baker Mayfield with a new contract extension<\/a> that pays him top quarterback money, and he also affirmed both the Bucs organiztion loving Mayfield and them being ready to spend whatever it takes to keep him.<\/p>\n Joel Glazer wants Buccaneers to sign Baker Mayfield to a contract extension<\/p>\n Glazer said, via Pewter Report<\/a>, “Everybody loves him. If the QB’s making top money, then your team is probably doing well and the QB’s performing well. That doesn’t hurt at all to write that check, it’s something that all the teams do when you have good QBs.”<\/p>\n The vast majority of Buccaneers fans reading that quote from Joel Glazer have to be nodding their heads wholeheartedly. Again, the Bucs fan base has long fallen in love with Mayfield’s moxie, and although they would like to see some more results from both him and the team as a whole, there is very little blame attached to Mayfield<\/a> for the performances of the team and the collapse.<\/p>\n If anything, the Bucs want to see their franchise quarterback backed. That means more than just the Glazers compensating him financially, but the Bucs want to see better coaching after Josh Grizzard’s poor 2025 as offensive coordinator, as well as the woes of head coach Todd Bowles – Liam Coen shining up north for the Jacksonville Jaguars has not aided that perception either.<\/p>\n Perhaps adding another weapon in the draft like a Kenyon Sadiq<\/a> or even a wideout would help (imagine Carnell Tate and Emeka Egbuka together), but the big thing is signing that contract and making sure he stays in the Bay.<\/a><\/p>\n
