This, for a team that already has a $31.7 million dead money Marshon Lattimore cap hit. Designating Carr a post-June 1 release would be far more palatable, but his entire $51.5 million cap hit would then remain on the books until June, leaving a team currently projected to be $60 million over the 2025 cap with essentially zero flexibility. A standard restructure would free up plenty of space, but then leave Carr with an otherworldly (for him) $69.2 million 2026 cap number. Long story short, the Saints face nothing but hard choices with their failed franchise player. It's going to be a bumpy offseason in NOLA.
It was a highly anticipated matchup between Mike Evans and Marshon Lattimore, but Evans thoroughly trounced his foe in this one. It just wasn't enough to get the Bucs the win. The veteran ends another impressive season with 1,004 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on 74 catches (110 targets) despite playing just 14 games in the regular season. He had 15 plays over 20 yards and tied Jerry Rice with 11 consecutive seasons with at least 1,000 receiving yards. He'll be 32 years old next season and looking to make it 12 years in a row. At this point, it's hard to doubt him, which makes Evans a high-end WR2 for 2025.
The score was Evans' sixth career postseason touchdown.

Mike Evans admitted before his first meeting with Marshon Lattimore earlier this season that he hasn't done a good job of controlling his emotions against his nemesis.
