Jalon Daniels In Line to Start for Buccaneers if Mayfield Out

AutoDraft Pro AI

Tampa Bay Buccaneers undrafted rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels is in line to start in Week 11 against the Detroit Lions if starter Baker Mayfield is unable to play. Mayfield is dealing with a lower-leg injury that kept him in a walking boot during Tampa Bay's Week 10 bye week. If Mayfield sits out, head coach Todd Bowles will turn to Daniels to guide the 3-6 Buccaneers, who remain just one game back in a competitive NFC South divisional race.
