Mike Evans Had a Scary Fall vs. Falcons in First Game Back From Broken Collarbone

Mike Evans returned to the lineup in Week 15 as the Buccaneers took on the Falcons on Thursday Night Football. Evans has been out since October when he broke his collarbone on Monday Night Football against the Lions in Week 7.

It didn't take long for Evans to make concerned viewers uncomfortable as a high throw from Baker Mayfield led to him landing hard on his back. Evans jumped for the throw as rookie cornerback Cobee Bryant grabbed his legs and ran underneath him. Evans came down hard and ended up basically bent in half with his knees touching his shoulder pads. His legs then sprang back, and he laid on the ground for just long enough to cause quite a bit of worry.
