This stat proves Mike Evans is a Hall of Famer

Being on this elite list is just one of many reasons why Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans will end up in Canton

Even at 30 years old last season, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans proved he’s still one of the best in the game, putting up impressive numbers that included tying for the league lead in touchdown receptions with 13.

That number also put Evans on an elite list of legendary pass-catchers who have found the end zone as often as he has, for as many seasons as he has.

Evans has caught at least 12 touchdown passes in five of his 10 seasons in the NFL so far, making him one of just five players in NFL history to achieve that feat.

The only others on that list?

Jerry Rice, Marvin Harrison, Randy Moss, and Terrell Owens.

If you’re wondering what those four have in common, it’s that they’re all members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

It won’t be shocking when Evans joins them after his playing career is over.
