Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Logs full practice Wednesday
Mayfield (right thumb) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
After sitting out the last three games due to a dislocated right thumb, Mayfield was expected to practice Wednesday and ended up handling every rep, according to the team. Head coach Todd Bowles told Smith earlier Wednesday that Mayfield "looked pretty good" while throwing, which he did with a glove on the afflicted hand. Bowles also relayed to Jenna Laine of ESPN.com that he likely will make a decision on who will get the Week 7 start between Mayfield and undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels on Friday. At the very least, Mayfield's activity level Wednesday has him in a decent spot ahead of Sunday's contest at Carolina.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Back at practice, as expected
Mayfield (thumb) was seen participating in Wednesday's practice and was throwing while wearing a glove on his right hand, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Just as head coach Todd Bowles suggested would be the case Monday, Mayfield was able to get back on the field for the Buccaneers' first day of Week 7 prep in what marked the veteran quarterback's first appearance in practice since dislocating his right thumb Sept. 27. Per Jenna Laine of ESPN.com, the Buccaneers are preparing for undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels to make a fourth straight start this Sunday at Carolina, but Mayfield could change those plans if he shows that he can grip the football securely and throw without any major hindrance during the team's practices this week. The Buccaneers will release their first injury report of the week later Wednesday, when it will be known whether Mayfield was a limited or full participant in practice.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: On track to practice Wednesday
Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that Mayfield (thumb) is "supposed to practice" Wednesday, Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports.
Mayfield hasn't logged any practice activity and has missed three consecutive games since dislocating his right thumb in a Sept. 27 loss to the Vikings, but he looks poised to take a meaningful step forward in his recovery process during the upcoming week. According to Greg Auman of Fox Sports, Bowles added that while he's still planning for undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels to make a fourth straight start this coming Sunday against the Panthers, the Buccaneers will evaluate how Mayfield looks with his throwing over the next few days before making any decisions. Shortly after Mayfield was diagnosed with the dislocated thumb, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the veteran signal-caller was facing a loose recovery timeline in the range of 3-to-6 weeks.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Ruled out for Sunday's game
Mayfield (thumb) will not play Sunday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Coach Todd Bowles confirmed what had been made obvious by Mayfield's continued absence from practices. There hasn't been anything said about his Week 7 chances, but the fact that it wasn't even a close call for Week 6 isn't the best sign. Jalon Daniels will make another start Sunday against Pittsburgh.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: 'Not quite ready' this week
Buccaneers offensive coordinator Zac Robinson said Thursday that Mayfield's right thumb is "just not quite ready" this week, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Mayfield officially hasn't practiced so far this week due to the dislocated right thumb that he sustained back in Week 3 against the Vikings, but head coach Todd Bowles told Greg Auman of Fox Sports that the quarterback was slated to attempt throwing Wednesday. Clearly, Mayfield is making progress away from the practice field, but until he mixes into drills in some capacity, he'll continue to cede starts to undrafted rookie signal-caller Jalon Daniels on game days.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Remains sidelined Thursday
Mayfield (thumb) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Mayfield has yet to practice or play since sustaining a thumb injury late in Tampa Bay's Week 3 loss to the Vikings. He looks to be headed for a third consecutive absence Sunday against the Steelers, which would pave the way for Jalon Daniels to remain in the starting role under center. Daniels guided the Buccaneers to a win over Dallas in Week 5 after losing to the Packers in Week 4.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Officially DNP on Wednesday
Mayfield (right thumb) officially didn't practice Wednesday.
However, head coach Todd Bowles said that Mayfield will attempt to throw Wednesday afternoon as he progresses in his recovery from a dislocated right thumb, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports. It remains unclear if Mayfield will be able to mix into any drills Thursday and/or Friday, but if he does, it'll mark his first on-field activity since initially suffering the injury in Week 3 against the Vikings. In Mayfield's stead, undrafted rookie QB Jalon Daniels has directed to Buccaneers to a 1-1 record.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Not yet ready to practice
Mayfield (thumb) wasn't spotted on the field for Wednesday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
After recently transitioning into a smaller splint for his dislocated right thumb, Mayfield is expected to test his ability to grip and throw the football this week, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. However, Mayfield looks like he'll wait until at least Thursday to get back on the field, with his ongoing absence from practice likely setting the stage for undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels to make a third straight start this weekend against the Steelers.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: Likely to remain out Week 6
Mayfield (thumb) "might do some stuff in practice this week" but appears unlikely to play Sunday against the Steelers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
After dislocating his right thumb late in a Sept. 27 loss to the Vikings, Mayfield was given a rough recovery timeline of 3-to-6 weeks. The veteran quarterback recently transitioned to a smaller splint for his thumb, which the Buccaneers hope will allow him to resume gripping and throwing the football this week. While Mayfield might have an outside chance at suiting up Sunday if he ends up returning to practice within the next day or two and is able to throw without any limitations, undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels still appears to be trending toward a third consecutive start at this stage of the week.

Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield: May progress to gripping ball next week
Head coach Todd Bowles said Friday that Mayfield (thumb) is now in a smaller splint, and the Bucs will see if he can progress to gripping the football next week, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Bowles admitted the "plan" is for Jalon Daniels to start next Sunday against the Steelers after the rookie quarterback helped lead the Bucs to their first victory in a stunning upset of the Cowboys on Thursday night. Mayfield has missed two games and was initially given a recovery timetable of 3-to-6 weeks, so he appears to be progressing normally with his dislocated thumb.
