Jerome Baker is a linebacker for the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins selected Baker with the 73rd overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Baker played at Ohio State from 2015-17, appearing in 33 games and racking up 158 career tackles with 7 sacks and 2 interceptions. In each of his first three seasons with the Dolphins, Baker appeared in all 16 games. He's become a cornerstone of the Miami defense and one of the better linebackers in the NFL- his 124 tackles in 2019 ranked 14th highest in the entire league. Baker's personality has made him a fan favorite in Miami. He popularized the phrase "where's my mama" after an NFL Films video of him asking that question on the sidelines went viral, and he has opened up in media interviews about the positive impact his mother has had on his life. In June 2021, Baker signed a three-year contract extension with Miami.
