    Bucs QB Baker Mayfield Pokes Fun At The Way His Season Ended

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield is appearing the first Pro Bowl appearance of his six-year NFL career. But he's staying loose while he's in Orlando participating with his fellow Pro Bowlers.

    Mayfield had a tremendous bounce-back season with the Bucs in his first year there, winning a slumping NFC South and beating the reigning NFC Champion Eagles in the first round of the playoffs.

    But the Bucs' season came to a screeching halt with a 31-23 loss at Detroit in the Divisional Round.

    On Thursday night, Mayfield shows he still has a sense of humor when it comes to his game. ESPN's Ryan Clark asked him about competing without a lot of time to prepare.

    "The last pass I threw was to Derrick Barnes in Detroit," Mayfield joked, referring to his game-ending interception against the Lions that ended the Bucs' postseason run.

    Mayfield is a pending free agent in March, although speculation is wide that he'll return to the Bucs after throwing for a career-high 4,044 yards and 28 touchdowns in Tampa Bay this season. Mayfield added 686 yards and six touchdowns in the playoffs over two games along with two interceptions.
