The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are struggling mightily in their game against the New Orleans Saints, and tensions are getting high.
Some frustrations boiled over in the third quarter, when Tampa Bay QB Jameis Winston poked New Orleans DB Marshon Lattimore in the neck and Lattimore responded by shoving Winston.
That didn’t sit well with former Texas A&M WR Mike Evans, who as you can see below, comes flying into the picture to blindside Lattimore. He also throws some punches when Lattimore is on the ground:

Quickly, more players arrived to get into the fracas, after which Evans surprisingly wasn’t ejected. Here’s what Winston did to initiate the fight:

Clearly, Evans has his quarterback’s back, but his wallet may be a little lighter next week, as he’ll almost certainly draw a fine for his actions on the above play.
The Bucs are currently trailing the Saints 30-3, so it’s pretty obvious why Evans was frustrated. Still, don’t touch Winston while Evans is around or you might get lit up.
