Bucs Mike Evans suspended one game by the NFL

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has been suspended one game by the NFL after his unnecessary roughness penalty in Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Evans and Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore got into it after a play mid-way through the game after Lattimore was jawing with a few Bucs players. Evans shoved Lattimore to the ground and chaos ensued. Both Evans and Lattimore were ejected from the game and now, the Bucs could be without Evans for their week three contest against the Green Bay Packers. Jeremy Fowler of ESPN has reported that Evans is expected to appeal the suspension.
