NFL legend Tom Brady has labelled Mike Evans’ one-game suspension as ‘ridiculous’ following the receiver's role in the brawl that broke out between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints in their match on Sunday.
The Bucs struggled through large portions of the contest but came away 20-10 winners at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome to secure Tom Brady’s first regular season win over New Orleans since joining Tampa Bay in 2019. The quarterback threw for 190 yards and a score but was without his star wideout at the end of the game.
The match marked the second time Evans has been ejected from a game for sending Lattimore to the floor after he did so in 2017. On Sunday, an incomplete pass saw Brady yell at the referees which drew frustration from Lattimore.
