Publisher's Synopsis
Baker Mayfield's journey is the ultimate story of believing in yourself when no one else does. From his early days playing football in Texas to becoming a star in the NFL, Baker's path was filled with obstacles, doubts, and tough challenges. But every time someone told him he wasn't good enough, he proved them wrong.
As a high school quarterback, Baker was overlooked. He wasn't the biggest, the fastest, or the most recruited player. But he had something no one could measure-heart. When colleges didn't offer him a scholarship, he walked onto the Texas Tech team with nothing but determination. And when that door closed, he took a risk, transferred to Oklahoma, and fought for his chance to shine.
With every game, he showed the world what hard work and confidence could do. He became a record-breaking quarterback, won the prestigious Heisman Trophy, and made history as the first walk-on player to be drafted first overall in the NFL. But Baker's story didn't stop there. His journey to the pros came with new challenges-proving himself as a leader, handling the pressures of being a franchise quarterback, and turning a struggling team into a contender.
