Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield will sit out of the team’s second preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday after head coach Todd Bowles originally said that Mayfield would play.

Mayfield has been dealing with a contusion on his right throwing hand he suffered early in training camp, which held him out of the Bucs’ preseason opener.

However, the Tampa Bay Times reported that Bowles changed his mind and decided against playing Mayfield, not because of the injury but because of how strong a performance the starter had in Thursday’s joint practice against the Steelers.

Mayfield, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, is entering his third season in Tampa Bay. He’s led the Buccaneers to playoff appearances in each of his first two years with the organization.

Along with Mayfield, star wide receiver Mike Evans and veteran linebacker Lavonte David will be held out of the Bucs’ second of three preseason games.

Without Mayfield, the Bucs will have recent free-agent signee Teddy Bridgewater, Kyle Trask and Connor Bazelak available to split the QB reps.
