Happy 30th birthday to Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield! Despite being a former No. 1 overall draft pick, Mayfield is a great example of how persistence can pay off in the NFL. After being forced traded out Cleveland to make room for Deshaun Watson and then a failed stint with the Carolina Panthers, Mayfield has found himself a home in Tampa.

Mayfield has made two Pro Bowls in two seasons with Tampa Bay, winning the NFC South last season.

Which brings us to today's quiz. Mayfield had a strong rookie season in Cleveland, and seems to have rediscovered his magic as a veteran. With that being said, how many of the NFL QBs with the most passing yards in their rookie seasons can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
