Bucs' Evan Spencer eligible to debut against childhood team, the Bears

Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Evan Spencer grew up around the Chicago Bears. His father, Tim, coached with the Bears under Lovie Smith and the family lived in Vernon Hills, Illinois.

So when the Bucs play host to the Bears on Sunday, it could be a special occasion for Spencer, who is elibigle to make his NFL debut. On the sideline will be Smith, in his second season as the Bucs' head coach, and Tim Spencer, Tampa Bay's running backs coach.

Evan Spencer, who had been on the practice squad since Week 3, was promoted to the active roster Tuesday. He takes the roster spot of linebacker Orie Lemon, who was released.

"It's amazing," Spencer said. "I get to fulfill a childhood dream and get to go out there and play football against another NFL team and suit up for another NFL team. It's something that I've been looking forward to for a very long time and it being against Chicago makes it even better."

Zach Smith asked by his cohosts on his Menace to the Midwest podcast the greatest single crackback block he’s ever seen, pointed to Spencer hitting Landon Collins in the Sugar Bowl on the first offensive series and Collins got up, looked Evan in the eye, and said, “Hey, chill bro.”

That was the moment they knew to pick on Collins the entire game. He’d made a business decision and tapped out. Even Cardale wanted in the action.

Narrator: He did.
