Mike Evans reserved words of recognition for Tampa Bay teammate Jaydon Mickens, who proved to be a threat last night. Mickens had 36 yards on 5 receptions as Brady and the Buccaneers made their way to a 2-point win.

He said, “Oh, he had a great week of preparation. He told me today he’s like, ‘I’m going to make some plays that showed y’all I could be out there with y’all.’

“And I told him, ‘You know you can play. Just do what you do.’ And he did that. He played great tonight like you said. And we appreciate it. I expect him to continue to do that…”

Evans further added that he hopes to see fans at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, sooner rather than later.

“Oh, my football, the two teams, tops one division. It’s gonna be a good one. At home, we’ll have some fans there. That’s what, that’s what we need.

“We need fans in the stadiums because it’s been some good football play this year. And, you know, it makes a lot of difference when the fans are out there getting to enjoy with us,” Evans told the press after the win.
