Family Feud Gone Wild: Baker Mayfield Sues His Dad Over $12 Million ‘Mysterious Disappearance’!
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield has thrown more than just touchdowns this year—he’s throwing down in court against his own dad! Baker is suing his father, James Mayfield, and his company, Camwood Capital Management Group, claiming they pulled a disappearing act with over $12 million of his money. According to Baker, his father and brother used a tangled web of companies to funnel funds into sketchy business moves without his OK.
This legal drama first hit the field in 2023, when Baker and his wife, Emily, demanded financial records to figure out where their cash was going. A settlement was reached in early 2024, with Camwood agreeing to repay nearly $11.7 million plus interest and share the financial receipts. But guess what? None of that happened! So, Baker is now suing for the money, interest, legal fees, and any other damages the court feels like tossing in.
The lawsuit doesn’t stop at Camwood—it ropes in other family-linked companies, like Camwood Ventures and some manufacturing firms. Baker says his hard-earned cash was being used for unauthorized projects, breaking both trust and their previous agreement.
The playbook was clear: repay $11.7 million and show Baker where his money went. But since that game plan was ignored, the Mayfield family feud just got cranked up to max drama. Stay tuned for the next courtroom quarter!
