Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans gave a hilarious explanation for why he dropped a wide open touchdown in Week 10 against the Titans.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Mike Evans had an incredible performance in Week 10 against the Tennessee Titans, but it could have been even better if it weren’t for a wide-open drop in the endzone. The Buccaneers cruised to victory and Evans (6-143-1) got his touchdown anyway, but his explanation for why he missed the easy touchdown catch was hilariously honest, via Rick Stroud

“They schemed me up a great one,” Evans said. “I was wide open and I dropped it. Maybe got a little cocky, thinking about what fan I wanted to give the ball to. You can’t do that.”

Whether Evans was showing off some dry humor or just being completely honest is hard to tell, but it’s quite the reason to miss a touchdown pass. Evans more than made up for his mistake later on, and all is well in Tampa Bay after getting a win against the Titans.
