3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Tampa Bay — the market puts it at 96%, closing 1 Dec 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Baker Mayfield joins the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as his next team before December 1, 2026. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the date of the linked injury story for the deadline, but the actual cutoff is December 1, 2026.
  • Baker Mayfield — the market puts it at 1%, closing 18 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Baker Mayfield ranks first in scoring among all quarterbacks during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. The outcome is No if he does not finish in that top position. Readers often mistake the resolution deadline, which occurs after the regular season ends, rather than at any point during the games.
  • Baker Mayfield — the market puts it at 44%, closing 2 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Baker Mayfield throws for at least 3,500 yards in the 2026-27 NFL regular season. The outcome is No if he fails to reach that total. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking it ends after a single game or playoff match rather than the full regular season.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
