While Evans was being told that he was getting ejected, he could be seen telling the refs, “that’s Tom Brady what do you want me to do.”

As for Evans, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio is reporting that the league is reviewing his ejection and may possibly suspend him for the shove.
Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans isn’t worried about being suspended after being ejected on Sunday, due to his latest tussle with Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore.
Perhaps Evans should be.
According to a source with knowledge of the situation, the NFL will indeed consider suspensions for Evans and Lattimore, given their history of extracurricular activities.
