Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans dropped a deep pass from quarterback Tom Brady. Sunday’s game saw the Buccaneers suffer a humiliating defeat against the Carolina Panthers.

Losing 21-3, the Buccaneers missed on a potentially easy touchdown because of Evans’ drop. The receiver seemed to be open while running down the field. Before the massive blunder, Mike Evans pushed Panthers cornerback Dante Jackson to the ground, giving him an open field. To make matters worse, the receiver bobbled around with the ball, making it seem like he would eventually catch it. Unfortunately for the Bucs, that did not happen.
