Baker Mayfield mocked Tommy DeVito's celebration after scoring a touchdown on the Giants
The second coming of DeVito mania got off to a slow start Sunday, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers shut out the New York Giants in the first half of Tommy DeVito’s first start of the season.
However, Baker Mayfield didn’t let the half end without giving the New Jersey fans a little of what they came to see.
Mayfield torched the Giants in the first half, going 19-of-23 for 230 yards and a rushing touchdown. He celebrated the score by imitating DeVito’s pinched fingers celebration from a year ago.
BAKER TAKES FLIGHT TO THE END ZONE.

According to the broadcast, Mayfield said he had a lot of respect for DeVito, so maybe this was more homage than mockery. But I gotta say, that’s a very exaggerated version of the celebration we saw from DeVito. Then again, that’s Baker Mayfield for you.
