Joe Burrow Praises Baker Mayfield Following Rams' Debut
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.
