Evans, 21, was taken with the No. 22 overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft by the Titans. According to OverTheCap.com, he receives an $11,577,192 contract that includes a $6,499,776 signing bonus.

The contract includes a fifth-year option for the Titans to pick up in 2021. It’s worth mentioning that the fifth-year option is only guaranteed for injury and won’t prevent the two parties from working on a long-term extension.

During his four-year college career at Alabama, Evans recorded 150 total tackles, 23.5 tackles for loss, 15 sacks, five pass defenses, two fumble recoveries, and two forced fumbles.
