For the first time in his career, Mike Evans is set to become an unrestricted free agent. Evans’s agents told ESPN’s Kimberly A. Martin on Tuesday that Evans intends to play in 2026, but will be exploring his options on the open market with his contract set to expire.
Evans has spent his entire career with the Buccaneers, who drafted him in the first round in 2014 out of Texas A&M. A franchise great and Tampa Bay’s all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns, Evans could wind up donning a new uniform for the first time in his career next season.
