While no flag was thrown for his hit on Mayfield, the NFL later announced that Wheat was fined $5,722 for "tripping" the Buccaneers quarterback. This shouldn’t come as a surprise, as the league typically fines players up to $12,172 for a first tripping offense, with the penalty increasing to $17,968 for a second violation.

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield is off the injury report and ready to face the Saints, aiming to lead Tampa Bay to another divisional win.
