Mike Evans Joins 49ers: A Super Bowl Push

NFL Store is making news on March 19th.

The San Francisco 49ers just landed a huge free agent in wide receiver Mike Evans.

This Hall of Fame caliber player brings 11 straight 1,000 yard seasons and a Super Bowl

ring to the team.

At 32 years old, he's the top receiver to join during the Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch

era.

Initial reports pegged his deal at a three-year contract, worth $60.4 million, averaging

over 20 million a year, that seemed pricey for a guy coming off an injury-filled season.

But newer details show it's actually three years for $42.4 million, with $16.3 million

guaranteed, making it a real bargain for his track record.

His old team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, revealed they offered him way more money, but Evans

picked San Francisco anyway.

Tied in George Kittle played a big role in recruiting him, selling the team's vibe

and championship push.

This move gives quarterback Brock Perty the best receiver he's ever had, especially with

Kittle returning from injury.

It boosts an already strong receiver group and shows the 49ers appeal goes beyond dollars.

Now the pressure is on to deliver a Super Bowl after 30 years without one.

Keeping tackle, Trent Williams' happy amid his contract talks could seal the deal for

a real title run.
