"After the 2025 season ended, Evans, who missed 10 games with a broken collarbone and a hamstring injury, wanted some time to determine if he wanted to continue playing football. The feeling heading into 2025 was that Evans had one of his best camps ever. He also said in December that the collarbone injury made him realize how much he'd miss football."
"Evans has long said that he wants to be a "Buc for life" and the team has very much wanted this as well. But he also wants to carefully weigh his options, knowing that he is on the tail end of his career. He is very fond of the team and the city of Tampa. The Buccaneers missed the playoffs this past season for the first time since their Super Bowl LV victory in 2020."
