Baker Mayfield responded to Lions safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson's remarks this week that the Buccaneers are without a good quarterback, telling him he needs to brush up on his film study, Jenna Laine of ESPN reports.

When asked about preparing for the Rams last week, Gardner-Johnson said via the Detroit Free Press, "This group probably is one of the better groups we done faced all year, besides that Tampa group. If you give that Tampa group a good quarterback, that's a great group. Evans, Godwin, [Russell] Gage, that's a great group. I played against them for real."

Mayfield responded Wednesday, "I don't think he's really watched film because he mentioned Russell Gage. We love Russell but Russell hasn't played a snap all year for us."

"He must be going off of preseason stuff that the media was talking about," Mayfield said. "I'm excited to see him. I think he's a really good player. He has been for a while. He's been an impactful guy on every team he's been on," Mayfield said. "So, he's a good player, but yeah ... just got to do a little bit more film study."
