Joe Burrow Praises Baker Mayfield Following Rams' Debut

Mayfield led the Rams to victory in his debut with the team.

CINCINNATI — Baker Mayfield led the Rams past the Raiders on Thursday Night Football last week, despite joining the team two days prior. 

The former No. 1 overall pick completed 22-of-35 passes for 230 yards and one touchdown. 

Mayfield's performance impressed Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow. 

"In Baker's situation, he didn't get any reps with them. He probably threw 25-30 balls to Rams guys," Burrow said during an appearance on the Colin Cowherd podcast. "He got there and he has to go out and play like that. I had a lot of respect for what he did." 

Mayfield was released by the Panthers last week, was claimed by the Rams and was on the field for 95% of their offensive snaps.
