Story summary
In a NFC West showdown on Sunday, Mike Evans, despite broken ribs, played a pivotal role in the San Francisco 49ers' 32-29 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. During the game, Evans engaged in trash talk with Seahawks cornerback Trevon Diggs, who was elevated from Seattle's practice squad and attempted to taunt Evans by swiping at his face mask without drawing a penalty. Evans, known for his assertive attitude, signed a three-year, $42.5-million contract with the 49ers this offseason and has been instrumental in quarterback Brock Purdy's success. In just five games, San Francisco is now 5-0, thanks in part to Evans' 113 receiving yards on seven catches and one touchdown against Seattle. His performance not only helped secure a significant win but also earned him the title of NFL’s most trending meme for Week 5.
