The Tampa Bay Buccaneers put together a playoff run despite low expectations in their first season of the post-Tom Brady era.

The team will have some decisions to make with Baker Mayfield's one-year deal expiring and Mike Evans set to hit free agency.

"I think he loves it here," advisor Bruce Arians said of Mayfield. "The job he did, I mean, the job Todd [Bowles] did with the new coordinator [Dave Canales], new play-caller, new quarterback and the ups and downs. To be the only NFC team to go to the playoffs four years in a row? That's very satisfying, for me especially.

"To watch everything as the season unfolded, and then to come in December and January to really put it together ... I mean, we came really, really close. One drive away from the (NFC) championship game. I loved the job Todd did and Baker did."

Arians also believes the Buccaneers will bring back Evans, who just completed his 10th consecutive 1,000-yard season.
