With Baker Mayfield out with a dislocated thumb, undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels completed 22 of 43 passes for 164 yards and two interceptions last week, and the 1-5 Buccaneers can't win if they're asking him to throw 40 times. There is some optimism that the Buccaneers may get Mayfield back this week, and a decision should come by Friday, which would greatly improve Irving's outlook if Mayfield returns, as the entire offense should see a lift.
