TAMPA, Fla. -- Wide receiver Mike Evans says he is "extremely confident" that Baker Mayfield will be back in Tampa Bay, despite the quarterback and agent Tom Mills still trying to work out a deal to re-sign with the Buccaneers.

The NFL's negotiation period opens Monday, when other teams will be permitted to contact Mayfield and attempt to sign him.

"I mean, I'm extremely confident," Evans said Friday. "I'm not 100 percent, but he played really great for us last year, the city took him in, the players loved him -- hopefully we get him back.
