The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have made a key decision regarding the future of Baker Mayfield. This Thursday, the team officially announced a contract extension for head coach Todd Bowles and also for general manager Jason Licht.

This was the message by owner Joe Glazer. ā€œJason and Todd’s leadership has been critical to our organization’s success. The winning culture they have established has us well positioned for the future. The continuity and stability they provide will play a large role in our ability to compete for additional championships.ā€

Licht was a key figure in helping the Bucs win the Super Bowl during the season with a spectacular roster led by Tom Brady, who defeated Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
