Mayfield played through multiple injuries in 2025 (MCL/PCL sprains Week 2, foot/toe Week 3, biceps contusion Weeks 4-5, oblique Week 8, left shoulder sprain Week 12), averaging just 6.8 yards per pass attempt and 71.9 percent adjusted completion rate—both career lows in Tampa Bay—yet still finished as overall QB12.
