Mike Evans remembered to keep the football this time after breaking Bucs’ all-time TD record

Mike Evans won’t be making the same mistake twice.

During Monday Night Football, Evans became the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ all-time leading touchdown scorer with a five-yard snag from Tom Brady in the third quarter. The touchdown is Evans’ 72nd with Tampa Bay, breaking the record previously held by Mike Alstott.

It’s a historic occasion for Evans and the Buccaneers franchise, but his celebration after the fact makes this moment all the funnier. If you recall, one month ago, Evans was the recipient of Brady’s 600th career touchdown and in his celebrations, accidentally gave the ball away to a fan in a hilarious miscue.

Now, however, Evans has learned from his mistakes and even poked fun at himself after his record-breaking touchdown by miming giving the ball away.

You live and you learn!
