With 'Catch For Kids' Campaign, Mike Evans Continues to Give Back to Community
In each of his first seven NFL seasons, Mike Evans has been one of the Buccaneers’ most impactful players. With 8,762 yards and 68 touchdowns in 113 career games, he already owns most of the franchise’s receiving records. But what fans might not realize is that, these days, every yard he gains and every touchdown he scores is perhaps making an even bigger difference off the field.
“Being a professional football player, there are a lot of kids out there that look up to you. To show them it’s about more than football—it’s about helping the people in your community—is important to me,” Evans recently told Bucs Nation. “Those are the kind of players I looked up to when I was growing up.”
