Mike Evans drops wide-open would-be TD pass vs. Panthers

Mike Evans is one of the most sure-handed receivers in the NFL but even he’s prone to the occasional blooper.
The Texas A&M product dropped a wide-open pass that would’ve been a touchdown during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ game against the division rival Carolina Panthers.
Tom Brady unloaded a bomb, but Evans bobbled the pass at the 25-yard line and it rolled down to the 10-yard line before he slapped it away in frustration.
Mike Evans nooooo
