Godwin Shocked by Evans Departure

Chris Godwin expressed disbelief when learning longtime teammate Mike Evans was leaving Tampa Bay for San Francisco.

"Honestly, I didn't believe it," Godwin told reporters regarding Evans' departure to the 49ers. "I mean, there's a bunch of stuff on the Internet that you can't really believe, a lot of AI stuff." The Buccaneers receiver confirmed he texted quarterback Baker Mayfield to verify the news. extract-html.com

Evans and Godwin are first and second in franchise history for catches, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. "I think it's part of the game, unfortunately," Godwin said of his teammate's departure. "Mike is my brother and I wish him the best." Evans, a first-round pick in 2014, left Tampa Bay for an opportunity to win his second career Super Bowl.
