Buccaneers vs. Saints: 5 players who’ll determine if Tampa Bay wins or loses
3. Mike Evans
You could really list any of the Buccaneers’ skill position players and say that they have a chance in determining whether Tampa Bay wins the game or not, but we’re going to focus specifically on Mike Evans.
Evans, who was named an offensive captain, has to provide leadership early on. There are going to be some butterflies- even with some of the other veterans- and it’s going to be up to him to create separation early on and come away with a couple of big-time plays.
Evans is the No. 1 target and he’s going to be relied upon to come out with explosiveness from the get-go.
