"A video emerged after the Bucs' 38-35 victory at the Seattle Seahawks of Mayfield responding to trash talk from a Seahawks fan in the tunnel just before kickoff. Fingers were pointed. Expletives were exchanged. "You're gonna be real f---ing quiet at halftime," Mayfield said. "You're a f---ing p---y." Mayfield sought out the fan after the victory too, in which he pointed at him while triumphantly skipping into the tunnel, with the fan yelling, "You still suck! You still suck!""
""Early on in my career it was 'cocky, immature.' Now it's 'moxie' and 'he's a dog.' Same s--- different day," Mayfield said Wednesday. "As long as you play well, they change the narrative, but you've just gotta be yourself, and I've always been like that.""
Baker Mayfield exchanged trash talk with a Seahawks fan in the tunnel before kickoff and later sought out the fan after the Buccaneers' 38-35 victory. Mayfield told the fan, "You're gonna be real f---ing quiet at halftime" and called him "a f---ing p---y," while the fan yelled back, "You still suck! You still suck!" Mayfield has started 2025 with the Buccaneers 4-1, leading four come-from-behind wins in the final minute — the most such wins in a team's first five games since the 1970 merger, according to Elias Sports. Mayfield noted perceptions shifted from being labeled "cocky, immature" to being praised for "moxie," saying consistent performance changes narratives.
