The Bucs quarterback appeared to suffer a head injury on a fourth quarter scramble.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers hold a slim lead over the New Orleans Saints in the fourth quarter of Week 6, but it looked like they might have to hold it down without their starting quarterback.
Baker Mayfield attempted to scramble for a first down but landed hard and was helped off the field to the blue medical tent. He was cleared to return to the game and is back in at quarterback for the Buccaneers.
