Mike Evans Becomes First to Start Career with 11 Straight 1,000-Yard Seasons, Ties Jerry Rice's Record
Jan 5, 2025, 09:17 PM
Mike Evans, wide receiver for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, secured his 11th consecutive 1,000-yard receiving season on Sunday, tying the NFL record held by Jerry Rice for most consecutive seasons with at least 1,000 receiving yards. Evans is the first player in NFL history to begin his career with 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons. Entering the game against the New Orleans Saints needing 85 yards to reach the milestone, Evans was five yards short in the final minutes. With the Buccaneers leading 20-19, the team opted to pass to Evans instead of kneeling, ensuring he surpassed the 1,000-yard mark with a crucial catch in the closing seconds. This achievement earned Evans a $3 million incentive bonus. The team's celebration underscored Evans's significant contribution and solidified his status as a future Hall of Famer.
