TAMPA — Last week, while explaining a play against the Seattle Seahawks last year, Bucs receiver Mike Evans dropped a throwaway line about Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman.
"Even though we're close in age, he's had a few more years than me in the league."
They're not that close in age.
Sherman is 29 years old; Evans is just 23.
When the Buccaneers selected Evans in 2014, he was among the youngest players in the league.
