Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Ready to practice in full

Head coach Todd Bowles said that Mayfield (leg) will be a full participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Bowles confirmed that Mayfield was dealing with right leg soreness following the team's 26-23 overtime win over the Panthers this past Sunday, after the quarterback was spotted limping around in the locker room following the contest. On a positive note, Mayfield looks to have mostly moved past the injury, as Bowles noted that the quarterback would have been a full participant even if Tampa Bay had held a more traditional practice session to kick off Week 14 prep. Assuming he experiences no complications during practices Thursday and Friday, Mayfield should head into the weekend without a designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders. The home matchup with a 2-10 Las Vegas squad provides Mayfield with a good bounce-back opportunity after the Panthers contained him to 235 passing yards and one touchdown while intercepting him twice in Week 13.
