He is a willing tackler that packs a devastating punch as a run stopper.
He is a rare strong safety that has plus coverage skills.
Evans closes quickly on the ball and takes aggressive angles, which can be both a positive and negative trait.
During his two seasons as an Aggie, Evans recorded a total 165 tackles, 11 pass defends and five interceptions.
If it weren’t for a solid safety class, Evans is likely a 2nd day draft selection.
Pairing the hard hitter with impressive range with Byron Jones gives the Cowboys one of the most athletic safety duos in the NFL.
