The Facts: Evans is going on nine consecutive 1,000-yard seasons without the long-term quarterback stability that some of his peers have enjoyed. And there's a high probability he'll get a 10th. So excuse Evans if he's amused by his sometimes underrated place in the receiver conversation. "I know where I'm at," Evans said. "My opinion matters more than anybody else because I watch all of these guys, and there are a lot of f---ing great players. But I'll take myself over anybody. If people were in my situation, there's only 5-10 guys in history who have done what I've done. It's been a battle, but I enjoy it."

Diehards Line: As ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler noted, Evans is referring to his quarterback roster -- from Josh McCown to Jameis Winston to Ryan Fitzpatrick to Brady -- and the constant double-teams he faces. "I'm probably the most doubled receiver since 2015, 2016 -- I have to be," Evans said. "Me or maybe [Davante] Adams." (ESPN doesn't track this metric.) Evans knows he's harder to double when he moves around, sometimes to the slot, so the Bucs could utilize that this year. The new offense with OC Dave Canales features "a few different routes I've never seen before," which he's excited to run.
