In the latest episode of ‘Let’s Go! Podcast,’ the Bucs’ QB outlined his solidarity with Mike Evans. “I love Mike. in the end, emotions are a part of sports. Sometimes they boil over and they obviously did yesterday. And it’s an unfortunate circumstance. I don’t think it deserved any type of suspension. I think that’s ridiculous,” he said.

Brady thinks it is ridiculous to suspend one of his best receivers. It affects the team combination, as the Bucs have to find a replacement for their permanent member. Evan’s exclusion is a hard one for head coach Todd Bowles and Co. ahead of the next week’s Super Sunday. They are facing the Packers. The contest has a personal angle too, as A-Rod is up against the GOAT. It is a much-awaited battle for the fans.
