Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans and quarterback Tom Brady finally connected this past Sunday the way we’re used to seeing them connect. In fact, they connected in a big way. So big, they both were recognized for weekly honors this week.
Evans was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week while Brady was named the FedEx Air Player for Week 17.
The veteran receiver contributed 10 receptions for 207 yards and three touchdowns in Tampa Bay’s division-clinching win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 17. He led all players across the league in receiving yards, yards from scrimmage, receiving touchdowns and touchdowns from scrimmage.
