Mike Evans has made a lot of fans in his two years in the NFL, but perhaps none bigger than the Newsome family of Palm Harbor.
On Monday, Evans spent some time after practice reconnecting with Adam Newsome, younger brother of Drew Newsome, who died in December of 2014 after receiving several special gifts from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' wide receiver. Newsome, long-time friend Mike Schaefer and several other buddies visited the Buccaneers' training camp on Monday on the invite of Mike Greenberg, the team's director of football administration.

It was through the efforts of Schaefer and Greenberg that Adam Newsome first got to visit One Buccaneer Place in 2014 and acquire an autographed jersey from Evans, his brother's favorite player.
