When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed quarterback Baker Mayfield in mid-March, many took it as a sign the organization didn’t have faith in Kyle Trask.
But the 25-year-old signal caller disclosed on Monday as the Bucs started voluntary offseason workouts that he believes he has just as much of a chance to win the starting quarterback job as Mayfield does.
“I’ve just been told it’s an open competition,” Trask told reporters. “But at the end of the day, I know the team’s going to do what they have to do to put whoever on the field that’s going to allow our team to be the most successful. … Fortunately enough, I’ve had two years of prior experience with a very veteran quarterback room, and there’s a lot to take away from that. I’m going to try to implement those styles and routines that they had into my routine and hopefully that’ll make us more successful at the end of the day.”
