Nobody's perfect, though, and sometimes, you let your quarterback down — and sometimes, that quarterback is the GOAT, Tom Brady. </p><p> Evans, a potential future Hall of Famer and Tampa Bay Buccaneers legend, spoke on the Rich Eisen show this week as the team prepares to face off against the Baltimore Ravens. He spoke very highly of quarterback Baker Mayfield and the job he's doing in Tampa Bay, but Eisen asked him if he ever demanded the ball from his quarterbacks. Evans said yes, and when asked specifically about Brady, he had a story to share from the two's time together in Tampa Bay. </p><p> "I probably did it two times in the three years we played, but the first time I did it, I kinda let him down after I asked for it," Evans recalled. "I got on him pretty good, and he was like 'You're right, I'll get you the ball.' And next drive, we get the ball, and he throws it to me twice at the goal line and I don't get it." </p><nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><div style="position:relative;width:100%; height:0; padding-bottom: 56.25%;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox" scrolling="no" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/m4MtRS3Qb_M?feature=oembed" style="width:100%; height:100%;top:0; left:0; position:absolute"></iframe></div><p><a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-star-wr-practices-saturday-ahead-of-ravens-game" rel="nofollow"><strong> READ MORE: Bucs Star WR Practices Saturday Ahead of Ravens Game </strong></a></p><figure><a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-wr-mike-evans-shares-tom-brady-story-on-rich-eisen-show?utm_source=RSS" rel="nofollow"></a><figcaption>Tristan Wirfs Talks Buccaneers Running Game </figcaption></figure><nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><p> When asked what happened after, Evans didn't say much, but he seemed to imply that Brady wasn't particularly happy with him after the fact. </p><p> "I'll go into more detail about it some other time," Evans joked. </p><p> He may not have Brady anymore, but Evans and Mayfield are set to face off against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football in what could be their toughest game of the season. </p><div style="position:relative;width:100%; height:0; padding-bottom: 56.25%;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox" scrolling="no" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/r240nFMYOtg?feature=oembed" style="width:100%; height:100%;top:0; left:0; position:absolute"></iframe></div><nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><p><em> Stick with </em><a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/" rel="nofollow"><em><strong> BucsGameday </strong></em></a><em> for more coverage of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers throughout the 2024 season. </em></p><p><em> Follow BucsGameday on </em><a href="https://twitter.com/BucsGameday" rel="nofollow"><em><strong> Twitter </strong></em></a><em> and </em><a href="https://www.facebook.com/BucsGameday" rel="nofollow"><em><strong> Facebook </strong></em></a></p><h2> More Tampa Bay Buccaneers News </h2><p> • <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/how-tom-brady-las-vegas-raiders-ownership-will-affect-his-broadcasting" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><strong> How Tom Brady's Raiders Ownership Will Affect His Broadcasting </strong></a></p><p> • <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-wr-earns-star-from-tom-brady-for-week-6-game-vs-new-orleans-saints" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><strong> Bucs WR Earns Star From Tom Brady For Week 6 Game vs. Saints </strong></a></p><p> • <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-make-roster-moves-after-injuries-vs-new-orleans-saints" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><strong> Bucs Make Roster Moves After Injuries vs. Saints </strong></a></p><p> • <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-experience-leads-to-quicker-bounce-backs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><strong> Bucs' Experience Leads to Quicker Bounce-Backs </strong></a></p><br><p> This article was originally published on www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers as <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/buccaneers/news/tampa-bay-buccaneers-wr-mike-evans-shares-tom-brady-story-on-rich-eisen-show?utm_source=RSS" rel="nofollow"> Bucs WR Mike Evans Shares Tom Brady Story on Rich Eisen Show </a> . </p></div></body>
