The NFL is gearing up for its final week of the 2024 regular season. With Week 18 upon us, the slate provides players with one last attempt to cross varying thresholds within their contracts to earn a little extra cash before the year concludes.

The guys I played for would have doubled that dude Mike Evans like it was a punt return....no way he's getting that record on us‼️ — Scott Shanle⁵⁸ (@scottshanle) January 5, 2025 S

Thankfully, Tampa Bay did get the ball back. On their final possession, with the victory and NFC South already secured, the Buccaneers had one goal in mind—get Evans over 1,000 yards. Baker Mayfield quickly connected with Evans on a nine-yard pass, putting Evans at 1,004 yards on the season.

Mike Evans made history — and big money — with just seconds to spare. Evans surpassed 1,000 receiving yards for the season with less than a minute left in the Buccaneers’ season finale against the Saints on Sunday. It marks the 11th consecutive season he’s done so, tying Hall of Famer Jerry Rice as the only other player to do so.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans continued his career-long streak of 1,000-yard receiving seasons on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, hauling in a 9-yard pass in the final seconds to surpass the mark for the 11th straight season.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers star receiver Mike Evans needed 85 yards to not just make NFL history but cash in a $3 million contract incentive in Week 18.

For a while it looked like it would not happen but in the final seconds of the Tampa Bay’ 27-19 win over the New Orleans Saints – not only did the Buccaneers clinch playoff berth but NFL history was made.

Once they got the ball back with less than a minute left, it took just one play to secure a record-tying season for Mike Evans.
