Running back Tiyon Evans Jr. comes to Massachusetts after spending time in camp with the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League, where he had a four-yard touchdown run in a preseason victory over the B.C. Lions. This will be the fourth professional league for the 5’11”, 210 lb. back from Hartsville, SC. 

Evans, who played collegiately at the University of Tennessee and Louisville, signed as an undrafted free agent with the Los Angeles Rams in the National Football League in 2023.
