Baker Mayfield (thumb) is active for Week 7 against the Panthers.

25 October 2026

When last we left Mayfield, he was struggling mightily in Weeks 1-3. Predictably, UDFA Jalon Daniels was not any better in his stead. Mayfield returns to an undermanned skill corps, as Emeka Egbuka (foot, concussion) is out for Week 7. Mayfield is a shaky option in the QB16-18 range. Joining Egbuka on the shelf are OT Luke Goedeke, S Antoine Winfield, OG Billy Schrauth, DL DeMonte Capehart and CB Ayden Garnes.
