The wide receiver position in the NFL is arguably the most talented it has ever been, with some top-tier players at the position all across the league, from young up-and-comers like Minnesota Vikings superstar Justin Jefferson, to players hitting their prime like Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins, and seasoned veterans still going strong like Tampa Bay Buccaneers legend Mike Evans.
In Week 13, the Buccaneers were able to get the best of the lowly division-rival Carolina Panthers in order to win their fifth game of the season and gain some ground on the division-leading Atlanta Falcons.
Although the win over the Panthers and getting closer to the Falcons was the most important thing for Tampa Bay, one of the team’s legendary players added to his legacy with another historic milestone.
Evans has been one of the most consistent wide receivers in the game, as he’s practically guaranteed to hit the 1,000-yard receiving mark every single season because now he’s done it for a decade straight while wearing a Buccaneers uniform, which earned high praise from Hill, who took to Twitter to call him a generational talent.

It seems that no matter who is passing him the ball, from Tom Brady to Baker Mayfield, Evans is going to get his numbers and keep his reputation going as the most consistent wide receiver in the NFL.
The Buccaneers may not be a force to be reckoned with this season, but that hasn’t stopped Evans from making an impact, as he has caught 61 passes for 1,012 yards and 10 touchdowns.
