How Senior Bowl performance cemented Chris Evans as one of 2021 NFL Draft’s biggest sleepers

Chris Evans’ time with the Michigan Wolverines did not go as planned with an academic issue keeping him out for the 2019 season and being one of the lost names in the 2020 running back rotation. Despite all of this, he may be positioned yet as one of the 2021 NFL Draft’s biggest sleepers at the position.
