Baker Mayfield out of Thursday practice, Jalon Daniels again in line to start

Though Baker Mayfield’s original timeline to return after suffering a dislocated thumb was a minimum of three weeks, the possibility of an early return was floated this week.

According to multiple reporters on the scene, Mayfield was not practicing on Thursday during the portion of the session open to media. That sets up undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels to once again start for Tampa Bay when the team plays Pittsburgh on Sunday.
