Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans admitted that he dropped a touchdown pass because he was thinking about which fan to give the ball to during a game. Despite this, Evans has been performing well this season, with 81 receptions, 1,392 yards, and 11 touchdowns on a 17-game pace. Additionally, there was a heartwarming moment between Evans and Titans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, who shared his experience of watching Evans while growing up homeless in the Tampa Bay area.
