Mike Evans On Josh Grizzard: “We’re Cool”
February 1st, 2025Talk about a professional. Mike Evans hit the nail on the head.
Local sports media icon Rock Riley is killing it at the Pro Bowl practices in Orlando today. He was able to corner Bucs future Hall of Fame wide receiver Mike Evans.
Evans said he really didn’t care who the Bucs hired as offensive coordinator to fill the void left by Liam Coen.
Why didn’t he care?
“It’s my job to get open and make plays for our team,” Evans told Rock.
Evans also told Rock he had no input with the Bucs on who should replace Liam Coen. When Rock asked Evans what he thought of new offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard, Evans then broke out into a smile and said, “Me and Josh, we’re cool. We’re cool. So, I hope I get the ball a lot this year. … I think it’s a good hire.”
Getting Evans the ball would be a very smart move. At least Joe thinks so.

Baker Mayfield Is A Coach Maker and Mike Evans.

Baker is a coach maker, Mike is a Quarterback maker!

Did anyone notice the “sheet-eating” grin that popped up on Mike when reporter asked what he thought of Grizzard????
I think this Grizzard cat might have a ton of coaching talent that is not being discussed.
Mike looked VERY happy with the hire.
Just my 2 cents 🤷🏻♂️

That’s why Joe referenced the smile. 🙂

Offense will be just fine. Defense will be better. So looking forward to next season. #onschedule

Mike’s a man of few words.
February 1st, 2025 at 3:21 pm
I see gray hairs! Welcome to the club, Mike.
February 1st, 2025 at 3:39 pm
And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is the gold standard seal of approval for our new OC.
February 1st, 2025 at 4:32 pm
Yeah that smile said a lot.
February 1st, 2025 at 5:22 pm
The smile says it all.
Let’s just hope her can keep the run game going too.

if M.E. is happy about it then I’m happy about it. Not too many men in the world that I trust more than Mike.

Evans is no dummy.
He’s gonna be lit up like tge house in national lampoon’s Christmas vacation early and often until things teally get going next year.

A man with a SB ring and many many millions in the bank on a HOF track is cool with the coordinator hire. OK🙄
What’s else is he gonna say?

Mike looked very happy about the hire. I think there is a ton to be said for the fact that they were the best third down team in the league and Josh was the one putting those game plans together.
I also think he may want to go deep a little more than Liam just because of his days in Miami.

Love the video, love Mike’s smile. Hoping Mike gets the ball a lot and breaks another record too.
