George Kittle is out here rocking a t-shirt that’s all about wide receiver Mike Evans, and yep, Fred Warner and Christian McCaffrey are in on the trend too. The San Francisco 49ers are sitting pretty at 5-0, making them one of just three undefeated teams remaining in the league, and Evans, who spent 12 seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is definitely making his presence felt in the Bay Area.

This Mike Evans Hype Is More Than Just a Shirt

Okay, so Kittle, Warner, and McCaffrey are all rocking shirts that just profusely praise their new wide receiver Mike Evans. It’s not just a subtle nod, either. Left tackle Trent Williams took it a step further, wearing a shirt that riffs on the classic 2003 film *Finding Nemo*. Remember those seagulls squawking “Mine!”? Williams’ shirt swaps the seagulls’ heads with Evans’, and they are all yelling “Mike!” It’s quite the welcome party for the veteran, showing how quickly he’s become central to that locker room down south.

Mike Evans Is Pulling His Weight For a 5-0 Start

Look, as much as it hurts to admit anything good about *them*, Evans is putting up numbers. He’s snagged 24 passes for 326 yards and three scores already this season. That kind of production from a new guy, especially a proven veteran like Evans, is a huge reason why the 49ers are rolling right now. They’ve punched their way to a 5-0 record, standing tall as one of only three undefeated squads left. It’s clear that Evans, even after 12 seasons elsewhere, is playing a big part in their hot start.

So yeah, the whole league is watching this 49ers squad. The shirts, the stats, the undefeated record,it’s all coming together for them in a way that, frankly, is tough to ignore. They’re making a statement early on, and it’s going to be interesting to see how long they can keep this momentum rolling.
