Bucs' Baker Mayfield finds 320-pound lineman for touchdown pass vs Cardinals

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers went deep into their playbook against the Arizona Cardinals as Baker Mayfield found offensive lineman Tristan Wirfs for a touchdown in the second quarter.

The 6-foot-5, 320-pound All-Pro tackle reported as eligible as the Buccaneers were trying to score on 3rd-and-goal from the 1-yard line. Mayfield took the snap, faked it to his running back and started to scan the field. He looked around and found Wirfs wide open.

It was Wirfs' first receiving touchdown of his NFL career.

The score was the first Buccaneers touchdown of the game. Mayfield was 11-of-15 with 117 passing yards at that point. He started the game despite suffering a shoulder injury last week against the Los Angeles Rams. He sprained the AC joint in his non-throwing shoulder, but managed to grin and bear the pain to play against the Cardinals.
