there you go

 

"Evans’s agent Deryk Gilmore told multiple reporters that Evans plans to play in 2026. Evans is set to become a free agent in March and Gilmore said that he plans to explore all options for where he will play."

Translated.  He’ll be back playing in Tampa for at least one more season.

There are multiple contenders they are likely evaluating. Bills? Patriots? Broncos? Jaguars? 49ers?

I personally believe he will leave, and for one of these five teams.

maybe

 

flash back:

 

Evans' wife, Ashli, convinced him to stay in Tampa and finish his career with the Buccaneers, where he recently signed a two-year, $41 million deal to avoid free agency.

“I don’t want to say I was waiting for my wife to speak up, but she just planted it,’' Evans said Friday, via Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.

“These things are just like day and night. You have to think about it. We were thinking, and it just hit her and she said, ‘Maybe we should stay in Tampa, babe.’ 

"I mean, I wanted to be in Tampa, and they offered me great money. It wasn’t about the money. I just wanted to see everything as a whole, and if we were going to get Baker [Mayfield] back and things like that. But I know I can play with whoever is at quarterback. Obviously, I hope it’s Baker.’'

I’m looking at this more of agent talk than anything.

glad Derrick brooks retired a buc.

was painful to watch Sapp and lynch play elsewhere ngl.

Even though I wouldn't blame him to leave. I think it would be a mistake by the organization. Another season for egbuka to be with Evans and Godwin is more valuable than people think. Also loyalty to the organization would slot him among the best. Rival maybe only Derrick brooks and Barber to play for one team.
