Bucs' Mike Evans: Baker Mayfield's Playing Style Similar to CFB Legend Johnny Manziel

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans sees some parallels between Baker Mayfield and a quarterback who helped to put him on the map in college.

The five-time Pro Bowler said on TexAgs Radio (via JoeBucsFan.com) that Mayfield is "really similar" to Aggies legend Johnny Manziel in terms of his playing style.

"So it was easy to adjust to play with him," Evans said. "Shorter quarterback. Great athlete. Throws like a baseball player, like really tight spiral. Really good arm. Improvise, can do all those things. Super tough. So I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do this year.
