- The San Francisco 49ers just added a certified WR1. After 12 legendary seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Mike Evans is headed to the Bay on a three-year deal, bringing his elite contested-catch magic to an offense featuring George Kittle and Ricky Pearsall. Safe to say the Niners just added some serious firepower.
- Hall of Fame consistency. Mike is the only player in NFL history to start his career with 11-straight 1,000-yard seasons. That streak tied the legendary Jerry Rice for the most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons ever. Basically, if Mike Evans is on your roster, you’re getting production.
- You’re a wizard, Mike! Off the field, Evans is a massive Harry Potter fan. He has multiple tattoos inspired by the series – including a portrait of Harry and Hermione – and even had a Harry Potter-themed groom’s cake at his wedding. Wide receiver by day, Hogwarts loyalist always.
- Turns out Evans isn’t just clutch on Sundays, he’s also bowled multiple perfect games. When he’s not catching touchdowns, you’ll probably find him playing Madden, dropping into Call of Duty, or casually rolling 300s.
- For someone who’s caught touchdowns in front of packed stadiums, proposing to his wife Ashli was the moment that made him nervous. Evans literally practiced his proposal with teammates before popping the question. Proof that even future Hall of Famers rehearse the big moments.
