Mike Evans, Buccaneers ‘Love’ Tom Brady Jawing With Tyrann Mathieu In Super Bowl
'He has a lot of guys to back him up'
Fiery Tom Brady made an appearance Sunday night at Raymond James Stadium, and Mike Evans, for one, loved seeing that side of the future Hall of Fame quarterback.
On more than one occasion during Super Bowl LV, Brady traded verbal barbs with Tyrann Mathieu. The Buccaneers signal-caller ultimately earned the last laugh over the Chiefs safety, as Tampa Bay dethroned Kansas City as league champions with a 31-9 win.
Evans after the game was asked about the tension between Brady and Mathieu, which apparently jacked up the Bucs.
“We love that (expletive),” Evans said, per Bleacher Report. “When Brady does that, he has a lot of guys to back him up.”
Tensions between the Bucs and Chiefs even spilled outside the teams themselves and onto social media, where Patrick Mahomes’ mother even criticized the officials in a tweet that mentioned Gisele Bundchen. There was no lingering animosity, though, as Randi Mahomes posted a photo of herself with Brady’s parents shortly after the game.
Brady himself might not have felt the same way about his behavior as Evans. The Super Bowl LV MVP reportedly texted a “lengthy apology” to Mathieu after the game in which he expressed regret over losing his composure.
Of course, TB12 was in a much cheerier mood as he hoisted the Lombardi Trophy for the seventh time in his unparalleled career.
