Mike Evans : Ejected | Stats | Lattimore | Injury | Bucs

Michael Lynn Evans III (born August 21, 1993) is an American football wide receiver for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League (NFL).

Evans played college football at Texas A&M, where he earned consensus first-team All-American honors after recording a school record of 1,394 receiving yards on 69 receptions, and was drafted by the Buccaneers in the first round with the seventh overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft.

Mike holds nearly every major Buccaneers franchise receiving record including, career receptions, yards and touchdowns.

Evans is the only player in NFL history to start his career with eight consecutive seasons with at least 1,000 receiving yards.

He won his first Super Bowl championship on February 7, 2021, in a victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

Mike evans Ejected 

Evans pushed Lattimore to the ground and both men were ejected from the game.

Prior to the incident, Brady has already been seen throwing his tablet to the ground and yelling at teammates.

Some pundits believe Brady’s off-the-field issues are to blame for his anger against the Saints, but the QB’s rage was more than likely due to wanting a win against his nemesis.

Brady and the Bucs move to 2-0 to start the 2022 NFL season and will take on the Green Bay Packers next Sunday.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady started a brawl against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday that got his teammate Mike Evans ejected.

Brady, 45, was fuming the entire game against the Saints, who he had yet to beat as a Buccaneer.

On January 2, 2014, Evans announced that he would forgo his final two seasons of his collegiate eligibility and enter the 2014 NFL Draft.

The majority of analysts and scouts projected him to be a consensus top 10 pick and a first round draft selection.

After a slow start in Week 1, Evans caught five passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns the following week in a 48–25 win against the Atlanta Falcons.

In Week 3, during a 34–24 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Evans recorded eight catches for 106 yards.

But in Week 4, during a 19–17 win against the New England Patriots, Evans caught seven passes for 75 yards.

And in Week 5, Evans caught six passes for 113 yards and two touchdowns in a 45–17 rout of the Miami Dolphins.

Then in Week 7, Evans added six catches for 76 yards to go along with three touchdowns, including the milestone 600th touchdown pass from Tom Brady late in the first quarter, in a 38–3 win over the Chicago Bears.

Week 8, during a 36–27 loss to the New Orleans Saints, Evans recorded two catches for 48 yards and one touchdown. In Week 10, during a 29–19 loss to the Washington Football Team, Evans recorded two catches for 62 yards and one touchdown.

Lattimore 

Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans and Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore both were ejected for their involvement in a several-player, after-the-whistle scrap in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s meeting in the Superdome.

This marked the second time since 2017 that Evans has been thrown out of a game in the dome for flattening Lattimore after the Saints top defensive back had been squaring off with another Buccaneers player.

This time, it started after a third-down incomplete pass with Tom Brady shouting at Lattimore.

As Lattimore responded, running back Leonard Fournette stepped in and shoved Lattimore, who shoved Fournette back.

That’s when Evans came running in from near the sideline and knocked Lattimore off his feet.

Saints safety Marcus Maye then tried to grab Evans, only to have Evans slam him to the turf while both were engulfed by a swarm of players from both teams.

Officials conferred and elected to assess offsetting personal fouls on just Evans and Lattimore, and ejected both.

Mike evans Injury 

Managers a roller coaster ride heading into Week 2. Evans was seen at practice with his calf taped Wednesday before being absent Thursday.

After he returned to practice in a limited capacity Friday, Evans was listed as questionable on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week 2 injury report.

The signs on Sunday morning appear to be promising regarding Evans being active for Week 2, as ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Evans is expected to be playing against the Saints this week.

What was also intriguing is that when NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport provided his morning updates a few hours later, Evans was not listed among the Buccaneers’ injury updates.

While it appears positive news regarding Evans’ status, his being active will leave fantasy managers scratching their heads about what to do. Let’s look at the situation for Evans in Week 2.

Bucs

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected Evans with the seventh overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, one pick after his college teammate Jake Matthews.

It was the first time Texas A&M had two Top 7 draft picks in the same draft since John Kimbrough and Jim Thomason in 1941.

On June 12, 2014, Evans signed a four-year rookie contract worth $14.6 million, with an $8.96 million signing bonus.

Evans made his professional regular season debut on September 7, 2014 in the Buccaneers’ season-opener against the Carolina Panthers, logging five receptions for 37-yards.

On September 28, 2014, Evans caught four passes for 65 receiving yards, including his first career touchdown on a 7-yard pass from Mike Glennon in a 27–24 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns, Evans caught seven passes for 124 receiving yards and two touchdowns in a 22–17 loss.

The following week, he had seven catches for 125 receiving yards and a touchdown in a 27–17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

On November 16, 2014, in a 27–7 victory over the Washington Redskins, Evans caught seven passes for 209 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

He became the first rookie receiver to have three consecutive games of 100 yards and at least one touchdown since Randy Moss in 1998.

He also became the youngest player in NFL history to catch for 200 or more yards in one game.

Evans was also the fifth rookie of the Super Bowl era to record 200 receiving yards and two touchdowns in a game, the first player to accomplish that feat since Anquan Boldin in 2003.
