Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield filed a federal lawsuit against a financial firm owned by his father, James Mayfield, accusing the company of failing to pay back nearly $12 million taken without his authorization. The 29-year-old NFL star filed the civil lawsuit Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas for $11.7 million.
Camwood did not immediately respond to an NBC News request for comment on Tuesday. NBC affiliate WFLA-TV of Tampa reported that Camwood is owned by James Mayfield, and that his son, Matt Mayfield — Baker Mayfield's brother — has a stake in it. Attempts to reach James Mayfield and Matt Mayfield were unsuccessful. They are not named as defendants, but are listed in the lawsuit as members of the company. In January, Baker Mayfield and the company entered into a settlement.
