TAMPA, Fla. — Time may be marching on for Mike Evans, who is entering his ninth NFL season. But it’s not standing next to the Bucs receiver, tapping its wristwatch.
That’s because Evans’ numbing consistency — he has a league-record eight consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons — is second only to his competitiveness.
Cornerback Carlton Davis, who shadows the best receivers in the league each week, says lining up across from Evans in practice has been the biggest challenge of his career.
