- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are thrilled to have Tom Brady back for at least one more season.
- As it turns out, not even Mike Evans knew he was going to unretire.
- This story from Evans is pure gold.
The NFL world was stunned after Tom Brady retired from the NFL. But, not too long after, the sports world was rejuvenated after Brady decided to return to the league and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers once again.
But, wide receiver Mike Evans revealed a story recently that shows that even he didn’t know Brady was going to return. In fact, Evans thought Brady was trolling him.
Mike Evans Thought Tom Brady Was Trolling Him Right Before His Unretirement
This story from Evans is pure gold. Just sit back and enjoy.
A few hours before @TomBrady announced his return, he sent Mike Evans a series of cryptic texts.
1st, a link to an article about the “final” TD ball Evans tossed in the crowd.
Then:
“There’s more touchdowns in our future.”

Brady is neverending with the jokes, and Evans clearly had no idea what would happen shortly after.
Now, Brady and Evans will head back for one more season — at least — with Tampa Bay, and their eyes are set on hoisting another Lombardi Trophy. And, who knows, maybe another boat parade.
