Mike Evans nominated for Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has been named a nominee for this year’s Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be without their star wide receiver Mike Evans for the rest of the year due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 14’s win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Fortunately, Evans hasn’t just been making a difference on the field this season. He’s been doing great work off it, too, which is why he is the Bucs’ nominee for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award.

See the list of full nominees above. The award will be presented at the annual NFL Honors on the eve of Super Bowl LIV in Miami.

For what it’s worth, Evans appreciated the love his fellow teammate Shaq Barrett showed him on Twitter.
