Bucs HC Todd Bowles 'Satisfied' with Baker Mayfield's Play amid QB Battle with Trask

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles was pleased with quarterback Baker Mayfield's performance in the team's preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday.

"He was composed. He did a good job running the offense," Bowles told reporters (h/t Jacob Camenker of Sporting News). "He made the plays he was supposed to make. We're satisfied."

Mayfield is in the middle of a battle with Kyle Trask for the Bucs' starting quarterback job. Mayfield completed 8-of-9 passes for 63 yards and a touchdown in a 27-17 home loss. Trask went 6-of-10 for 99 yards and an interception.
