Definitely one of the coolest stories you’ll hear today.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield not only saved a Florida high school football team’s season, he also launched their journey towards a state championship.
Meet the Space Coast Vipers, who were dealing with financial problems following a 1-8 campaign last season. So much so, that they had issues providing the necessary equipment to kids and had to turn them away.
Well, Mayfield and his wife, Emily, heard about the situation and donated $17,900 to the school, which was enough to provide every player with gear. The kids got brand new helmets, uniforms, pads, they got the hookup! And how does the Vipers football team respond?
By winning their first SSAA 1A State Championship in program history.
Truly one of the coolest stories ever.

Needless to say, that contract is working out quite well for Baker Mayfield.
Baker Mayfield’s deal with the Buccaneers:
2024: $30 million
2025: $30 million, including $20 million guaranteed
2026: $40 million
$5 million per year in incentives
$100 million total, with incentives a max value of $115 million.
What perfect timing by both Baker Mayfield and the Space Coast Vipers, because Tampa‘s been going through a tough time since Hurricane Milton — keep up the grade-A work, boys.
