NEW ORLEANS — Turns out that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers didn’t need Mike Evans to put away the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.With Evans and his Saints nemesis, Marshon Lattimore, ejected early in the fourth quarter for their roles in a mini-brawl, Tampa Bay collected three fourth-quarter interceptions of Jameis Winston – including one that was returned 68 yards for a touchdown by Mike Edwards – to seize the momentum that led to a 20-10 victory.

It was no surprise that Evans and Lattimore were in the middle of the mayhem when tempers flared during the fourth quarter at Caesars Superdome.They were both ejected with just under 13 minutes on the clock after a mini brawl escalated when Evans shoved Lattimore to the turf. Lattimore and safety Marcus Maye jawed with several Bucs, including Brady, after the Saints broke up a deep third-down pass to force a punt.
