-- Mike Evans on His Future: We'll See --
Thu Dec 18, 2025 --from FFMastermind.com

The Pewter Report reports probed about whether or not he will return for a poetic Year 13, Buccaneers WR Mike Evans was non-committal. “I haven’t even really thought about it, honestly,” Evans added. “I’m just going to wait until the season’s over, I’m just trying to focus as much as I can on the season. We’re human, we’ve got to think about the future, but I’ve been trying to lock in on helping this team make the playoffs. Time will tell.” Tampa Bay’s season is teetering in the balance standing at 7-7. It simply does not seem that this would or really should be the end of his playing days. Going out on top on a playoff squad while having a 1,000-yard season seems more symbolic for someone as rooted in consistency as Evans is. The future Hall of Famer has plenty of fire and big games left in him. Just look at his six-catch, 132-yard performance in his first game back against the Falcons in Week #15 as proof. He remains as competitive as ever, expecting greatness out of himself and his teammates. Even after providing the offense life with a big game, it was not enough to him. “It felt good to be back,” Evans said in his first comments to reporters since returning. “I was super excited to be back and help the team. I thought the game was going to be taken away. I thought I was going to be done for the season. To be back out there, I worked really hard… the training staff did a great job getting me back. ‘Did I have a good game?’ I had an okay game. Yardage-wise I did alright, but there was a few more plays I could have made. I wish we could have won that game.” That makes it more realistic Evans could play even into his mid-30s, but it sounds like, as seen with LB Lavonte David in recent years, it will now be a year-by-year basis. “It will be soon, even if it’s three or four more years that I play,” Evans said. “I’ve played 12, so… we’ll see. Time will tell. I don’t know, I’m really trying to focus on this season and making the most out of it.”

-- Bill Belichick Watch --
Thu Dec 18, 2025 --from FFMastermind.com

NFL Insider Josina Anderson reports there's been recent interest expressed, at the very least, in speaking with North Carolina HC Bill Belichick on a exploratory basis from two NFL teams, per league source.

Additionally, up to seven more teams are monitoring potential change at head coach (Giants and Titans are open), and up to 3-4 more teams are considering change at general manager, at this time. The Miami Dolphins already have a general manager vacancy.
