Mike Evans Calls Out Rams' Travel Plans After 49ers' Blowout Win
San Francisco 49ers tight end Mike Evans reacted to learning the Rams' travel schedule after his team's 27-7 win in Australia.
The San Francisco 49ers defeated the Los Angeles Rams, 27-7, in an NFL International Series game held in Melbourne, Australia. The 49ers arrived in Australia nearly a week before kickoff, while the Rams arrived just over a day earlier. During postgame remarks, 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans criticized the Rams' travel plans, questioning when exactly they had arrived in Australia.
Evans noted that the Rams should have given their bodies more time to adjust to the different time zone. Despite Evans' criticism, the 49ers won the game with Brock Purdy throwing for 205 yards and three touchdowns, including a pass to Evans for his first of the 49ers season. The Rams, meanwhile, struggled with quarterback Matthew Stafford completing only 15 of 25 passes.
