Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield and his wife Emily have had to evacuate their home this week because of Hurricane Helene.
The hurricane hit northern Florida pretty hard, causing major flooding and power loss.

Mayfield, his wife Emily, their daughter, and their dog left their residence before the storm hit as a means of caution. Emily furnished her followers with an update on Friday.
“Baker, Koko, Fergus and I evacuated yesterday and are safe,” she said via Instagram. “Our sweet, sweet community got pummeled, but even that doesn’t compare to the people up North who took this storm head on. It’s unfathomable.”
Emily is grateful that Helene did not affect the Mayfield home but revealed she was “praying nonstop” for the people dealing with the impact while also offering tangible assistance.
“I am looking for ways to get out and tangibly help,” she added. “Please send me anything you find, and I will share the good ones.”

Fans Were Praying For Baker Mayfield And Florida After Learning He Had To Evacuate His Home
Fans offered prayers for Mayfield, his family, and the city after coming across the update on X/Twitter.
“Praying everyone stays safe,” a user wrote.
“I’m glad they are safe! Family is more important than football. I’m glad that they were not in danger,” a second added.
“Wishing the best for the Bakers and the communities involved. 🙏,” said a third.
Helene was the first category storm to reach Florida’s Big Bend region in over 170 years.
The natural disaster is understood to have claimed several lives, including in the state. It has since been downgraded to a tropical depression but is still considered to be dangerous as it makes its way to the southeastern coast.
The Buccaneers are scheduled to play the Philadelphia Eagles at home this Sunday. The NFL has not announced any changes in kickoff time or venue so far.
