Baker Mayfield landed in Los Angeles two days ago as the newest member of the Rams, and he couldn’t have written a better ending to his first game with the team.
The Rams were trailing the Raiders, 16-3, for most of the fourth quarter, but Mayfield led an unbelievable comeback in the final five minutes to cap off the win. His final throw of the night was a beautiful 23-yard strike to Van Jefferson for a touchdown, giving the Rams a 17-16 lead.
That touchdown came after Mayfield led another touchdown drive on the previous possession, with Cam Akers scoring that time to make things interesting at 16-10.
.@bakermayfield's first TD as a Rams gives us the LEAD!!
