With the Buccaneers traveling to Buffalo tomorrow night and the short turnaround, this is likely more a precaution than anything concerning. 

Tuesday was another walkthrough day for the Buccaneers and Wednesday will likely be the same. On Tuesday, Baker was out at the beginning of walkthroughs with the team.

After Sunday's struggles, Todd Bowles opened up on the interceptions that Mayfield threw and the offensive struggles.

They're not all Baker. As an offense, we've got to get better as a team. We've got to get better. We started out hot, people start picking up on things, and you have to adjust on some things.

Mayfield has thrown for four touchdowns and three interceptions in the Buccaneers' last three games.
