Ronde Barber doubts Mayfield extension before training camp begins

Ronde Barber, a Hall of Famer and current member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers organization, expresses skepticism about Baker Mayfield signing a contract extension before the team's training camp. Mayfield has set a deadline and indicated he will halt negotiations once the camp starts, which could lead to distractions during the season. Barber believes securing a deal is crucial for the Buccaneers, who are expected to contend in a weak NFC South. The contract situation is already impacting team dynamics, with players and coaches frequently addressing Mayfield's status instead of focusing on football as camp approaches.
