Pro Bowl Selections & Playoff Probabilities | Salty Dogs
Q: What do you think about the recent performances of Baker Mayfield?
Baker Mayfield has shown moments of brilliance, but has been inconsistent towards the end of the season.
Elijah Roberts: Execution is Key | Salty Dogs
Q: Do you feel like there's a thing called the rookie wall? Do you feel how much different from the beginning of the season to where you're feeling right now?
Yes, I mean, physically, of course, I mean, I honestly feel like everybody kind of definitely feels a little bit more, obviously a little bit more beat up than you did in the beginning of the year.
Charting the Route Ahead: Bucs Path to Postseason | Salty Dogs
Q: How practical is it to have Mike Evans average 172 yards per game over the next five games?
It's unlikely since he is not expected to play five games, and he would need to accomplish a very high total of receiving yards in each remaining game.

Q: What was your draft experience like?
My whole mindset going into the draft was that when I got picked by the Bucs, I felt like it was a full circle moment.
