“What’s Wrong With You?”
July 15th, 2026
Moving moment in the Quarterback docuseries on Netflix featuring Baker Mayfield, along with Joe Flacco, Jayden Daniels and Cam Ward.
At a Bucs practice following the Week 3 win against the Jets, Mayfield’s throwing arm is hurting after an injury suffered in that game.
Mayfield is trying to hide the bicep issue and swelling. Receiver Sterling Shepard senses a problem.
Sterling Shepard: What’s wrong with you? (pause) What’s wrong with you?
Baker Mayfield: What do you mean?
Shepard: Your knee?
Mayfield: No, my arm.
Shepard: Fu*c is wrong with your arm?
Mayfield: When i got it hit on the Z-choice [play].
Shepard then reacted in horror when Mayfield showed him his bicep area.
Mayfield is then seen talking to Mike Evans about the bad arm. He says to Evans, “there’s so much bruising but it doesn’t, it’s not even bruised on the part where it hurts. It hurts on like a tendon right there.”
Evans looks on as Mayfield rolls back his sleeve to show the bruising. “Whoa!” Evans reacts.
Netflix then shows pictures of the wide range of bruising on Mayfield’s arm, from below the elbow to near the armpit.
The Bucs lost in Week 4 to the Eagles, 31-25. Would a healthy Mayfield arm have made a difference? It might have on Mayfield’s red zone interception to Chris Godwin in the fourth quarter.
