Baker Mayfield tabbed as dark horse 2025 MVP candidate

Kirby Lee-Imagn Images

After throwing for 41 touchdowns in 2024, Baker Mayfield has been named a dark horse MVP candidate by NFL.com’s Judy Battista.

Baker Mayfield took his game to new heights during the 2024 campaign when he set a new career high in touchdown passes with 41, besting his previous mark by 13. His 4,500 passing yards were also a career high, marking the first time in his career he has thrown for 4,000+ yards in consecutive seasons (4,044 in 2023).

Both of his latest campaigns also ended with the Bucs in the postseason. Unfortunately Tampa Bay did not end up winning their wild card matchup against the Commanders, even with Mayfield playing a clean and efficient game with 185 yards, two touchdowns, and zero picks.

The hype behind Mayfield and his play has never been higher as he enters his third season with the Bucs and what could arguably be the best receiver room he’s ever played with. The team returns Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan, but now adds 2025 first-round pick Emeka Egbuka to the group. This group is a big reason why Mayfield has been tabbed as a dark horse MVP candidate by NFL.com’s Judy Battista.

“Often overlooked, Mayfield got two fifth-place votes last season, but he deserves deeper consideration,” says Battista. “The Buccaneers had a top-five offense in 2024, and Mayfield completed 71.4 percent of his passes for 4,500 yards and 41 touchdowns. This season, he will throw to receivers Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan and first-round pick Emeka Egbuka. Mayfield will have to overcome two things to get more serious consideration. He will have his third play-caller in as many seasons with the Buccaneers, after Liam Coen left to become the Jaguars’ head coach. (New OC Josh Grizzard was the passing game coordinator last year in Tampa.) And then there’s the fact that the Bucs play in the NFC South, considered one of the weakest divisions in the game. Thus, the schedule might not be littered with marquee matchups, though Tampa does have games against Philadelphia, Detroit and Buffalo.”

It’s unfortunate but a fair assessment to say that Mayfield playing in the NFC South may end up hurting his case, regardless of how well he ends up doing in the division. The Panthers and Saints are in a very weak place as franchises and the Falcons aren’t much better right now entering a year with a first-time starting quarterback. Mayfield may have to go undefeated in the division to truly get the respect he deserves, as well as winning his non-division games, as well.

With this team’s well-rounded roster, it would not be a surprise to see Tampa Bay have a phenomenal season in 2025, but they also wouldn’t be the first team with high expectations entering the year to ultimately fall short. They still have to perform week-in and week-out.

But something tells me this team is up to the task.

Bucs EDGE Haason Reddick is ready to roll with Buccaneers

Kim Klement Neitzel-Imagn Images

New Buccaneers edge rusher Haason Reddick is ready for a fresh start and glad to be with a team under a winning culture.

After a tumultuous 2024 season with the New York Jets that saw him record just one sack, new Bucs pass rusher Haason Reddick is in the building and ready to roll with his new team.

From 2020-2023, Reddick posted four consecutive double-digit sack seasons as a member of the Cardinals, Panthers, and Eagles. His career high came in 2022 with Philadelphia when he posted 16 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, and five forced fumbles. After 27 sacks across two seasons with the Eagles, Reddick was traded to the Jets but a continued contract dispute limited him to just 10 games and two starts on the year.

Now out of New York, Reddick seems to be acclimating to his new franchise well. Following Wednesday’s practice, Reddick told reporters that — while he works out by himself during the offseason every single year — he’s happy to be with his new team under a “winning culture.”

Per Sports Illustrated’s River Wells, Reddick is staying motivated by the team’s young pass rushing corps that includes Yaya Diaby and Chris Braswell. The veteran is already busy giving out as many pointers as possible, as well.

In all, Reddick’s energy looks like a man who’s embracing a fresh start. While meeting with reporters, he also touched on this idea that he’s out to regain his former self. Reddick said he’s not after regaining any sort of reputation, but rather making sure he’s in a great place at all times. The outside chatter? He’s not paying it any mind.

#Bucs OLB Haason Reddick says he’s motivated this season but not for type of stuff like regaining his reputation.

He doesn’t care what people think about him. He’s only worried about being in a great place. pic.twitter.com/DC2jKdoae4

Tampa Bay Buccaneers' contentious offseason acquisition reports to minicamp

Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images

Tampa Bay Bucs fans can breathe, Haason Reddick has entered the building.

Mandatory minicamp has officially begun for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. To the surprise (and dismay) of drama-seeking headlines, Haason Reddick was in attendance.

The Buccaneers signed Reddick earlier this offseason, as a potential free agent fix for their woeful pass-rush. Calijah Kancey led the Buccaneers in sacks a season ago with 7.5, however, Tampa’s edge-rushers were led by a mere 4.5 courtesy of Yaya Diaby.

News of Reddick’s signing –as well as his absenteeism from voluntary workouts– were met with scrutiny from some, due to off-beat nature of his career trajectory. Reddick plays a premium, highly coveted position and for the better portion of his career he has played it well. Still, despite high levels of consistent success, Reddick has bounced around the league from team to team. A career that began in Arizona shifted across country to Tampa's NFC South rival— The Carolina Panthers. In just one season with the Panthers, Reddick nabbed 11 sacks. Two-straight seasons of double-digit sacks didn't convince Carolina to bite and Reddick was on the move again. Following his one-year stint with the Panthers, Reddick began a two-year run with the Philadelphia Eagles. Those two seasons saw continued high-level production— registering as the third and fourth consecutive years Reddick tallied double-digit sacks. Still, unable to catch on Philadelphia shipped Reddick off to the New York Jets.

To most, last season is his largest red flag. Reddick's tenure in New York was short-lived and underwhelming. After holding out, the pass-rusher did not join the team until the end of October. Worse still, upon returning he was not an impact player. The Jets struggled as a team and Reddick was no better as an individual— Recording just one sack.

Jason Licht and company decided to bank on a return to form for a previously elite player when they scooped him up on one-year, $14 million deal.

The buzz around Reddick as a Buc has been mixed so far and while some were skeptical of his character, following the decision to not participate in voluntary workouts, the Buccaneers have consistently stated they expected Reddick to attend any and all mandatory team activities. The Tampa Bay Bucs official account on 'X' jumped at the opportunity to let the world know their new star pass-rusher was suited up and ready to go.

If the Buccaneers plan to go anywhere near where fans would like to see them go in 2025, Reddick figures to be a large part of the equation.

Buccaneers' wide receiver changing name.

Kim Klement Neitzel-Imagn Images

Chris Godwin announced he will no longer be sporting just 'Godwin' on his nameplate.

Chris Godwin has been a prolific wide receiver for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If not for the Hall of Fame caliber career his counter part has had, Godwin would be Tampa Bay's most productive career pass-catcher. Godwin is second, behind Mike Evans, across every major receiving statistic in franchise history.

Tampa Bay fans can now confirm that 'Chris Godwin' won't be adding to those numbers any further. Earlier this week, reports surfaced that Chris Godwin will now officially be known as Chris Godwin Jr.—

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin is adding “Jr.” to his name on the back of his jersey as a tribute to his late father ️

“That’s why l’ve chosen to add “Jr.” to my name in honor of the man who gave so unselfishly of himself to others and helped mold me into who l am today.” pic.twitter.com/VdBuT8tKeo

— Football Forever (@fballforeverhq) June 12, 2025​

Stating he would be adding the Jr., "In honor of the man who gave so unselfishly of himself to others and helped mold me into who I am today."

Jr. or no Jr. Chris Godwin (Jr.) will be positioned to play a vital role in ensuring Tampa Bay's offense maintains the dominance it was able to achieve a year ago. While 'Chris Godwin' may be gone he is unlikely to ever be forgotten and if Chris Godwin Jr. plays near the standard set by his predecessor, Godwin Jr. jerseys will become a Sunday staple at Raymond James.
