Baker Mayfield Headbutts Teammate After Shocking Win, Goes Crazy In Locker Room

Baker Mayfield Headbutts Robert Rochell

Baker Mayfield‘s Rams debut had a Hollywood ending — he led L.A. to a come-from-behind victory in improbable fashion over the Raiders on “Thursday Night Football.”

Mayfield and the Rams were down early and went into the half trailing Las Vegas, 13-3.

But, with a few minutes left in the 4th quarter, Mayfield, down 16-3, took a page out of Tom Brady‘s book, erasing a 13-point deficit … just as TB12 did against the Saints on “Monday Night Football.”

With 15 seconds left in the game, Baker connected with wide receiver Van Jefferson for the game-winning touchdown, capping off an eight-play, 98-yard drive.

Naturally, Mayfield was pumped over the W … and cameras captured him headbutting his teammate, defensive back Robert Rochell on the sideline out of excitement.

After the game, head coach Sean McVay gave Baker a game ball for his performance … before turning over the floor to the 27-year-old for a victory speech.

“Good f***ing job, man, that’s the way to fight to the f***ing end,” Mayfield said after his teammates mobbed him in the middle of the locker room. “I’m happy to be home, man.”

Baker is now on his third NFL team — after stops in Cleveland and Carolina failed to work out — and there’s no telling what his future in L.A. holds … but whatever happens, this was a helluva way to start, and a game that won’t soon be forgotten by Rams fans and players.
