When Mike Evans went down with injury in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions, the scene was an absolute nightmare for the Buccaneers and their fans.
Evans, who has been the heart and soul of the franchise since being drafted in 2014, suffered his first major injury in his 12-year career. He went down with a broken collarbone as well as a concussion.
Between how severe the pain seemed to be for Evans, combined with his visible emotion while being carted off the field, it felt like a far cry that he'd be able to return anytime soon.
