Bucs could use the franchise tag on Mayfield for 2027, at a cost of about $51 million. Not ideal from a cap standpoint but an option, yes.

Just to be clear, Mayfield is setting a deadline to suspend negotiations from training camp to the end of the season. He's not saying he would rule out an extension between end of season and free agency in March. Just not during the season itself.
Wow! So if a contract is not in place 2026 start, Baker will be a free agent to begin 2027 pre season……..

The key points from Baker Mayfield talking today: contract talks with Bucs have started but are “not anywhere close” and he’s set a deadline of the start of training camp next month to get a deal done. Wants to stay in Tampa longterm.

Bucs host the Packers in Week 4, but won’t have to face Parsons:
#Packers star Micah Parsons makes clear that he'll begin the 2026 season on the PUP list, offering a target of mid-October until he's on the field. With a long career ahead, no shortcuts.

Bucs-NBA finals connections: Bucs TE Payne Durham and Spurs guard Devin Vassell both went to Peachtree Ridge High in Suwanee, Ga., and graduated in 2018. Bucs WR Garrett Greene overlapped with Knicks guard Miles McBride at West Virginia in 2020-21. Bucs safety Rashad Wisdom went to college in San Antonio at UTSA and is from just east in Converse.

The Falcons’ young trio of London, Robinson and Pitts will get expensive in a hurry. Could be $70 million a year between the three once they’re all extended.
Falcons are signing WR Drake London to a four-year, $141 million extension worth up to $150 million, including $100 million guaranteed, per his agent Andrew Kessler. It makes London the third highest paid receiver in the league with the highest average per year in Falcons franchise history.
