Mike Evans joins the 49ers on a 3-year, $42.4M deal, aiming to help win a Super Bowl.

Mike Evans has signed a three-year, $42.4 million contract with the San Francisco 49ers, leaving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after 12 seasons. The move, influenced by tight end George Kittle and the team’s championship culture, aims to strengthen the 49ers’ offense. Evans, a six-time Pro Bowler and 11-time 1,000-yard receiver, sees the 49ers as a contender and believes he’s the missing piece to win a Super Bowl. He joins a roster with quarterback Brock Purdy and head coach Kyle Shanahan, whom he praises. Despite age and injury concerns, Evans is expected to play a key role as the team’s top receiver.
