Bucs' Mike Evans does not rule out retirement in interview with Kay Adams
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has spent over a decade carving out a Hall of Fame résumé, 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons, a Super Bowl title, and an unmatched consistency that's made him one of the most respected receivers of his generation. But as he enters his 12th NFL season, Evans made headlines with a revealing comment about his future. In a recent interview on Up & Adams with Kay Adams, the 31-year-old admitted that retirement is a possibility once the 2025 season ends. 'Retirement at the end of this season isn't off the table and playing for 2‑5 more years isn't off the table either,' Evans told Adams. 'I know I'm not playing five more years… but it's easy for me to say I could play another two or three.' While Evans stopped short of making any firm declarations, the tone of his comments hinted at a player who is beginning to weigh the future seriously. He also revealed that he doesn't see himself playing much longer beyond the next few seasons. Evans enters the 2025 season tied with Jerry Rice for the most consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons in NFL history (11). That kind of historic company puts his career firmly in Hall of Fame territory and adds a bit more intrigue to what his final seasons might be. Yet, through it all, Evans has remained loyal to Tampa Bay, the franchise that drafted him seventh overall in 2014. 'I'm a Buc for life, no matter what,' he said during the interview. Evans' current contract expires after this season. Whether he decides to retire, return on a short-term deal, or test free agency again will be one of the Buccaneers' biggest offseason storylines. Evans also mentioned an interest in participating in flag football during the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles a hint that his NFL career could wrap up before then. 'Most likely I'll be retired by 2028,' Evans said, while expressing excitement about potentially representing Team USA on the Olympic stage. The NFL legend's comments suggest a growing openness to life after football, though not necessarily an imminent exit. Still, the Bucs and their fans may want to start preparing for the eventual reality of football without their most iconic receiver. If 2025 does turn out to be Evans' swan song, he'll leave the Buccaneers with one of the most decorated and loyal careers in franchise history. From his record-breaking consistency to his pivotal role in the team's 2020 Super Bowl run, Evans has been the face of the organization through multiple eras. For now, though, he's focused on the task at hand: helping Tampa Bay compete in what could be a final chapter of a legendary career. Whether 2025 is the end or just the next step, Mike Evans has made one thing clear: he'll be walking away on his own terms, and always as a Buccaneer.

NBA Legend Doesn't Hold Back About Fever Superstar Caitlin Clark
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark were expected to be WNBA Finals contenders heading into the 2025 season. Unfortunately, Clark has been dealing with a lot during her second campaign. In the 31 games the team has played, Clark has only participated in 13 of them. She has dealt with multiple different injuries throughout the year. Most recently, she has been forced to the sideline due to a groin injury. Clark has missed a lot of time due to the injury and there is no telling when she'll be able to get back on the court. Caitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever celebrates in the fourth quarter against the Phoenix Mercury at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on July 30, 2025 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Caitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever celebrates in the fourth quarter against the Phoenix Mercury at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on July 30, 2025 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Photo byEven when Clark has played, she has struggled to be as impactful as she was during her rookie season. Read more: Fever Superstar Caitlin Clark Again Throws Shot at WNBA Referees Throughout the 13 games she has played this year, Clark has averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, five rebounds, and 1.6 steals, while shooting just 36.7 percent from the floor and 27.9 percent from the three-point line. Obviously, those are not the numbers she was targeting. After being considered a top-tier WNBA MVP candidate at the start of the season, that hype has cooled. Despite the rough second season Clark has gone through, one NBA legend spoke out with strong words to the rest of the league about her. Bob Cousy, who was a star with the Boston Celtics, revealed his opinion about Clark. "It's a saleable product, and Clark's done a really good job selling it. She's exceptional," Cousy said. "She's had a tremendous impact on that league and their earning potential. They should be kissing the ground she walks on, not trying to foul her and get her out of the game." He is 100 percent right about the impact Clark has made on the WNBA. She has taken the league to a level that it never thought possible in such a short amount of time. The interest level in women's basketball around the world is at an all-time high. Read more: Caitlin Clark's Heartbreaking Reaction to Fever Teammates' Season-Ending Injuries Granted, there are plenty of other talented women playing in the WNBA, but Clark was the main reason for the big jump the league took. Hopefully, Clark is able to get back to full health and play basketball again this season. The WNBA simply isn't the same without her on the court. Only time will tell, but fans are anxiously awaiting her return for the Fever. Make sure to follow Newsweek Sports for all Indiana Fever and WNBA news and updates.

Bruins defenseman Hampus Lindholm believes his best hockey is still ahead of him
Advertisement Lindholm, reached by telephone this past week at his home just outside coastal Helsingborg, dismissed any doubt he'll be up to the task. Nine months since he Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up It has been, noted Lindholm, a long road back and a 'little different summer' to get his knee in full working order. 'A good summer,' he mused, 'and I am excited about coming back and showing everyone.' He'll return, Lindholm noted, incentivized to 'pick up where I left off' prior to his injury, and also to impress the watchful eye of Team Sweden bosses ahead of the Winter Olympics in February. He wore the Three Crowns sweater many times in the past, most recently in 2018, when helping Sweden win gold at the 2018 World Championship in Denmark, pairing on that squad with John Klingberg . Related : Advertisement Eager to show what he could do again for 'team and country,' Lindholm will have the Games on his mind from the start of the NHL season, up to the finalization of Olympic rosters in late December. 'It's a big goal of mine to have a good start to the NHL season and show that I belong on [Team Sweden], which I think I do,' he said. 'That's something I've had this summer as an extra [push] — to make sure I can come back [to Boston] and start where I left off, make sure I keep building and even keep building and being better. I still feel I have my best hockey in me … and it would be such an honor to represent Sweden. Some of my most fun hockey memories have been to play for Team Sweden.' Lindholm and fellow Bruin Elias Lindholm were in Stockholm on Wednesday for Team Sweden's one-day Olympic orientation camp that brought together the some 30 players essentially on the short list for consideration. Barring unforeseen circumstances, Boston's Lindholms figure to be at Olympus. New coach Marco Sturm , Advertisement 'Yeah, I heard a rumor,' kidded Lindholm, 'that he retired before he had to face me. At least that's what I heard.' Related : Lindholm's pals with the Kings organization, where Sturm coached across seven seasons, have told him 'good things' about the new Bruins coach. Lindholm noted he's also always enjoyed being on clubs with 'fellow Europeans and guys from Germany.' 'I'm excited,' said Lindholm, 'and he's got that little Boston history from playing there and knowing the culture. I think he's going to be really good and I'm excited to work with him.' Lindholm hasn't played since suffering a fractured kneecap in November. Matthew J. Lee/Globe Staff Trading places Spot for Bussi with Panthers? Positioned not so long ago as the top goalie prospect in the Bruins' system, Brandon Bussi departed the WannaB's last month after a three-year tour. The ex-Western Michigan stopper signed a one-year UFA deal with the Stanley Cup champion Panthers. No telling if Bussi, now 27 and still without a minute of NHL play on his résumé, finally gets his crack at the big time. On the same day they signed Bussi to his two-way contract ($775,000/$400,000), the Panthers also inked ex-Blue Jacket Daniil Tarasov to a one-year deal for a guaranteed $1.05 million. Tarasov was the 86th pick in the 2017 entry draft, when Florida GM Bill Zito was the Blue Jackets' assistant GM. Tarasov is pegged to enter the season as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup — the spot ex-Boston College Eagle Spencer Knight held last season before Zito shipped him to the Blackhawks for veteran defenseman Seth Jones (now with his first Cup ring after 920 games). Advertisement If Tarasov ends up the guy, then Bussi will be destined for AHL Charlotte, albeit with that $400,000 guaranteed minimum as consolation. That's a four-fold increase over his pay rate in Providence last season. Meanwhile, unless Bruins GM Don Sweeney opts to deal away Joonas Korpisalo as Jeremy Swayman's spot reliever, the Bruins' top goalie prospect in waiting is Michael DiPietro , the ex-Canucks draft pick acquired in the October 2022 swap for Jack Studnicka (once considered future captain material). DiPietro took over the WannaB's net last season and put up stellar numbers, including his 1.85 goals-against average and .928 save percentage in the playoffs. Moving out Korpisalo and replacing him with DiPietro could mean a net cap savings of some $1.2 million, per Update on the new ports of call of other former Bruins, some of whom also spent time on Providence roster last season: Justin Brazeau : Signed with Penguins, two years/$3 million total. Cole Koepke : Signed with Jets, one year/$1 million. Parker Wotherspoon : Signed with Penguins, two years/$2 million. Vinni Lettieri : Signed with Maple Leafs, one year/$775,000 Ian Mitchell : Signed with Red Wings, one year/$775,000 All five secured one-way deals, guaranteeing them full pay even if they are assigned to the minors. Former Bruin Brandon Bussi signed a two-way contract ($775,000/$400,000) with the Panthers. Barry Chin/Globe Staff Going out on top Ex-Bruin Khudobin calls it a career A favorite in the Bruins dressing room during his two separate tours in Black and Gold, goalie Anton 'Doby' Khudobin , age 39, on Tuesday called it a career after 14 seasons. Eternally upbeat, the Kazakhstan-born puck stopper, a Wild draft pick (No. 206/2004), had an endearing penchant for fracturing English expressions. Advertisement 'Sometimes you're on top of the horse,' he said here during one good stretch in net, 'and sometimes you're under the horse.' Khudobin cashed in with rich back-to-back deals in Dallas after his successful 2017-18 season as Tuukka Rask's partner, what was Doby's final stay in the Hub of Hockey. His first deal with the Stars paid him $5 million over two years, leading to a three-year/$10 million pact he signed just before the Stars transitioned from Ben Bishop to Jake Oettinger as their franchise stopper. Khudobin ended up appearing in only 41 games for Dallas under that $10 million deal and was dealt late in year No. 3 to Chicago, where he played the final game of his NHL career in the spring of 2023. He finished with a mark of 114-92-33 and lifetime earnings of just less than $27 million. Not bad for a kid who, at the age of 13, saw his parents sell off their belongings in Kazakhstan so he could follow his coach to Russia and pursue his dream of playing in the NHL. 'I really, really … I really don't know how many words I can say to describe how much I appreciate what they've done for me,' he told me late in his final season in Boston. 'I mean, to leave a country where you have an apartment, a car, a job, a place you have everything, and to leave that for another country. I was 13, right? I mean, who knows?' Khudobin years ago built what he called was his dream retirement home in Krasnoyarsk, a picturesque city of a million plus in Siberia. He now can spend retirement riding on top of the horse. Advertisement Olympic thoughts Canada invitees set, but not US yet Team Canada and Team USA will hold their Olympic orientation camps late this month ahead of the 2026 Games in Italy. The Canucks recently announced the names of the 42 NHL invitees, ex-Bruin Brad Marchand among them, who'll convene for the group hug in Calgary Aug. 26-28. Headed into the weekend, the Yanks had yet to make public their dates, or invitees, for a similar camp to be staged in Michigan. Per a Team USA official, the camp will not entail on-ice workouts and players are not expected to be available for media interviews. Marchand, if he makes the cut, will be headed to Olympus for the first time in his distinguished career. He was among the Canadians who won the 4 Nations Face-Off in February, and that entire championship roster has been invited to Calgary. Lightning coach Jon Cooper , who steered Team Maple Leaf to its 4 Nations triumph, again is bench boss for the Olympic squad. The South Shore's Mike Sullivan will steer USA. As of now, there are no Bruins on the Canadian invite list, which looks like a snub for Morgan Geekie . The favorite son of Strathclair, Manitoba, scored 33 goals last season, which ranked 26th in the NHL, tied with Sidney Crosby among others. Sid the Kid will be in Alberta. Only eight Canadian-born NHLers last season scored more than Geekie's 33 goals. Setting aside Ontario-born William Nylander , who'll play for Team Sweden in Milano-Cortina, five of the other seven to score more than 33 will be in Calgary: Brayden Point (42), Mark Scheifele (39), Sam Reinhart (39), John Tavares (38), and Brandon Hagel (35). The only non-invitees to score more than 33 goals were Jordan Kyrou (36) and Nazem Kadri (35). Kind of a cruel irony that Geekie lives in Calgary in the offseason — maybe at least they let the guy commute to camp? Charlie McAvoy will be expected in Michigan for the American camp. He was among the six A-listers Team USA named in June, along with Jack Eichel , Auston Matthews , bros. Matthew and Brady Tkachuk , and Quinn Hughes . Jeremy Swayman , who in June backed the Yanks to their Worlds gold medal in Sweden, is expected at the USA camp, along with Connor Hellebuyck (ex- of UMass Lowell) and Jake Oettinger (former Boston University Terrier). All should be encamped in Italy until it's over over there. America's last Olympic gold: 1980 Lake Placid, the miracle in the Adirondacks. The now 45-year drought is the longest in US history. Ice hockey was first played in the 1920 Games at Antwerp. Until 1980, America won its only gold at the 1960 Squaw Valley Games. Morgan Geekie was not among the 42 NHL invitees to Team Canada's Olympic camp this month. Barry Chin/Globe Staff Little Ball of Great Marchand marks within reach Brad Marchand's six-year deal, for $31.5 million, carries an annual cap hit of $5.25 million on the Panthers' books. The Little Ball of Hate will receive $25.5 million, more than two-thirds of his total payout, via up-front salary bonuses paid prior to the start of each season (dramatically reducing what he would have to surrender if the Panthers opted to buy him out, say, in his early-40somethings). The former Bruins captain, 37, has logged 1,100 regular-season games and this season easily should reach the 1,000-point milestone (currently 424-556—980). If Marchand can play 400 games over these next six seasons and boost his career total to 1,500 (not bad for a projected bottom-six support guy), he'll finish in the same neighborhood as Brendan Shanahan (1,524), Matt Cullen (1,516), and Steve Yzerman (1,514). Marchand and the two-time Cup champ Panthers will face the Bruins first this season Oct. 21 on Causeway Street. Loose pucks If you lost track, Marco Sturm is one of nine who'll open the season as their club's new coach. The others: Jeff Blashill (Chicago), Glen Gulutzan (Dallas), Dan Muse (Pittsburgh), Rick Tocchet (Philadelphia), Lane Lambert (Seattle), Adam Foote (Vancouver), Mike Sullivan (Rangers), and Joel Quenneville (Anaheim). Sturm, Foote, and Muse, a Stonehill College grad from Canton, are the only ones hired with no prior NHL bench boss experience … Peter Laviolette (fired by the Rangers) and Peter DeBoer (canned by the Stars) will be the first two coaches hired amid the inevitable in-season shakeups. Combined, they've coached 2,855 NHL regular-season games in 11 cities (all different). My Bingo card has DeBoer ending up in Nashville (once a Laviolette outpost) and Laviolette landing in Columbus … Bruins rookies will report for duty Sept. 10 in Brighton, finally ending the Hub's longest summer hockey snooze since 2016. The rooks will head directly to Buffalo for the annual Prospects Challenge, with games Sept. 12 vs. the Penguins and Sept. 14 vs. the Devils. The varsity stick-carriers come rolling into Warrior Sept. 17 … Bob Hartley , who was behind the Avalanche bench in 2001 when Ray Bourque won his only Cup, last month was named bench boss by KHL Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, the defending Gagarin Cup champs … Ex-NHLer Alexander Radulov led the Lokomotiv attack and was named the KHL's postseason MVP. He dedicated the Cup win to the Lokomotiv team, including then-coach Brad McCrimmon (long ago a rookie here with Bourque), who was killed in an plane crash just prior to the 2011-12 season. 'I believe they were looking down from above,' said Radulov, 'and gave us some kind of energy.' … The Bruins Fan Fest rolls out for three days next month with stops in Hanover (Sept. 5), Fitchburg (Sept. 6), and Concord, N.H. (Sept. 7) For more info: Kevin Paul Dupont can be reached at
