Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield left the field at Raymond James Stadium dejected after Tampa fell to the Commanders 23-20 to end their playoff run as quickly as it started. The agony of defeat for Mayfield likely felt a bit harsher after his fourth-quarter fumble changed the course of the NFC wild-card round game for the Buccaneers,

Mayfield made a costly mistake in the fourth quarter, botching a handoff that led to a Commanders’ fumble recover at the Tampa 13-yard line. Jayden Daniels found Terry McLaurin for the go-ahead touchdown four plays later, and the Commanders never trailed again.
