Buccaneers WR Mike Evans handed Tom Brady’s 600th touchdown ball to a fan

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans inadvertently made a team staffer’s life a little more difficult on Sunday when he unwittingly gave a fan the game ball Tom Brady threw for his 600th career touchdown.

Brady connected with Evans as the first quarter wound down, and Evans handed the ball to a fan in the front row. Brady is the only quarterback in NFL history to throw for 600 touchdowns, so Evans handed the lucky fan a piece of league history.

Evans later looked deeply concerned when he was informed that he gave away Brady’s souvenir, but the team took care of the issue — the fan, of course, was not going to be allowed to keep the ball.
