Earlier this year, in March, in an interview with Sports Spectrum, Mayfield opened up about being a girl dad.

"I’ve definitely always had a softer, more sensitive side," Baker said (1:11). "I was really close to my mom growing up, but as you get into football culture, you’re trying to be the tough guy and all this, so you try and bury that down. It’s just the man’s ego.

"But as soon as I saw her, I’m like, oh, she's got me wrapped around her finger. So yeah, there’s definitely that, but the protective instincts come out and you realize what your priorities are," he added.
