Watch: Baker Mayfield brings back helmet-less headbutt after leading Rams' comeback win
On Thursday night, roughly 48 hours after being claimed off waivers, quarterback Baker Mayfield led the Los Angeles Rams to a dramatic come-from-behind win over the Las Vegas Raiders and brought back a familiar, yet painful, celebration.
Mayfield smashed his unprotected skull into the helmet of cornerback Robert Rochell, who was taken aback by the headbutt, as any average human would. However, Mayfield is no average human, as he also found a way to headbutt 6-foot-6 tight end Tyler Higbee.
Nearly a month ago, Mayfield celebrated a Carolina Panthers 25-15 win over the Atlanta Falcons in a similar fashion, with the only difference being that he didn't play a snap in the game.
This time around, Mayfield was the reason for the celebration.
Mayfield led two separate scoring drives late in the fourth quarter, lifting the Rams to a 17-16 victory over the Raiders.
With the Rams down 16-3, Mayfield orchestrated a 17-play, 75-yard drive capped off by a one-yard touchdown by Cam Akers to cut the deficit to six with 3:19 left in the game.
On the Rams' next possession, Mayfield led an eight-play, 98-yard drive connecting with Van Jefferson on a 23-yard game-winning score with 10 ticks left on the fourth-quarter clock.
Mayfield finished 22-of-35, throwing for 230 yards with a touchdown and zero interceptions.
