TheChosenTitan Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 This is the guy who I am looking forward to see this year. I think he can be a complete stud inside. Does anyone have any nice videos of his play this year? Can’t find any on YouTube reo, and SleepingTitan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huston Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Rashaan Evans is coming into form. The first-round pick has really stepped up his game. When the Titans drafted inside linebacker Rashaan Evans in the first round of this year’s draft, there were pretty high expectations for this Titans’ defensive front. But with injuries limiting his impact in the first half of the season, things went south for Evans. Thankfully, that seems to be out of the picture, as Evans has gradually gotten better through the season’s progression. It’s tough to take anything away from tackle stats, as they can boil down to where the play ended. Still, Evans has 40 tackles in his rookie season, with 18 in his last three games. Again there’s nothing we can take away from tackles, but I’ll say this: Evans looks more and more like a key part of this Titans defense, showing up in a big way in the team’s wins against the Jets and Jaguars. So with that in mind, let’s dive into what stands out about Rashaan Evans’ rookie season. https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/2018/12/13/18138762/rashaan-evans-is-finding-his-groove SleepingTitan, Justafan, titanruss, and 1 other 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkiller Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) It took him a while to get up to speed after missing most of training camp, be he looked as good as expected by the end of the season. I look forward to seeing him being a standout on D. Edited March 26, 2019 by Starkiller nine, and titanruss 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nine Posted March 26, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Yup. He was pretty much lost for the first few games, but started hitting his stride around midseason and improved steadily. Evans is gonna be a huge problem for a lot of teams. Lest we forget....Henry's 99-yard TD run wouldn't have happened had it not been for Evans' play on 4th and goal, shooting the gap and hitting Fournette in the backfield. titanskick8851, Alcibiades, Bluth, and 6 others 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepingTitan Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 EOY he turned up. Really hoping he puts it all together this year too. Gonna be interesting to see the competition develop between these linebackers. They have the potential to be special. Our team right now reminds me of the Ravens 2012. titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huston Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 He gives us that thumper at middle linebacker we haven't had in years in a smaller and more agile package then you usually see from the position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryBoats Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 That Fournette tackle was the thing of HOF players. He's still getting accustomed to the position, yet he was grading as well as a run defender as anyone in the league at the end of the season. He's got Patrick Willis ability IMO. That physically and athleticism isn't all that common. Huston, and Alcibiades 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He literally bulldozed his own tackle to get the RB. He blew him up. The guy is hungry and wants to feast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That physically and athleticism isn't all that common. My favorite play from him was when he blew up the Patriots FB and then laid out the RB at the LOS at the goal line. That was the play when I knew we had something special in the guy. For his size he lays wood on any and everyone in his way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanskick8851 Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Weirdly enough Turron Davenport dropped a Evans article today...good timing @KingTitan8 The article was interesting though because it hints more at how we will use Evan's pass rushing ability more this upcoming season. That would explain why they are looking into ILB such as Devin Bush, Blake Cashman, Khalil Hodge, and Mike Smith if they are planning to employ Evans as an EDGE more often this year. I doubt it, as Evans fits the mold of a strong down hill ILB, but it makes you wonder how dynamic they could be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def use him on the edge some because we are fairly weak there but gotta keep him on the inside on run situations, that man is bull Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
