A massive day in NFL free agency just saw a major splash. Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers pro bowl wide receiver Mike Evans is reportedly set to sign a 3-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers, according to several reports.
Evans is a 12-year NFL veteran, praised and well-known for his high-end consistency. Before an injury derailed his 2025 season, Evans had strung together 11 straight seasons of finishing with more than 1,000 receiving yards. Last year, Evans totaled 30 receptions for 368 yards and 3 touchdowns across 8 games of action.
Evans’ deal is a big one. The 49ers are signing Evans to a 3-year deal worth $60 million, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Here’s a statement from Evans’ agent Deryk Gilmore, which says that Evans took the offer from San Francisco in free agency to challenge himself while he still has some gas left in the tank. Check it out:
That consistency that made Evans a lot of money with Tampa and now San Francisco was present in college, too. Evans played 2 seasons in College Station with Texas A&M, totaling 151 receptions for 2,499 yards and 17 touchdowns combined. He totaled more than 1,000 yards both seasons, making sure the 1,000-yard standard was set early.
The 49ers’ current odds to reach the postseason next year sit at 52% as of early March. Here’s a look at some more of the top odds:
