After catching his 90th Career touchdown against the Colts on Sunday, and Davante Adams having a touchdownless game against the Chiefs, Evans enters week 13 just 1 Touchdown behind Adams for their careers. With the Raiders being on a bye week, this means Evans will need to catch 1 touchdown to equal Adams or 2 to pass Adams for sole lead. Evans opponent this week is the Worst team in the NFL, the Carolina Panthers who on their last meeting got destroyed by Evans as he had 10 catches for 200 yards and 3 TDs. If he is able to replicate this performance than he will become the active leader in Touchdown Receptions.
As an aside, if Mike Evans accumulates at least 150 more receiving yards for the season then he will tie Randy Moss for the second most 1000 yard receiving seasons in a career (10), a mere 4 behind Jerry Rice.
Mike Evans is infamous for being stuck with a hamstring injury for years. He actively deals with it and some games it’s really bad. He’s talked about sometimes, in his earlier years he used to mention it a lot but I guess he knows now that people who follow the team know he’s pretty much always dealing with it. We Bucs fans are used to seeing his named paired with “Questionable - Hamstring.”
