Rashaan Evans is an American football linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Tennessee Titans in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He played college football at Alabama.
2014 saw him receive recognition as an Under Armour All-American, which he earned while still in high school.
Evans attended the University of Alabama while playing football in college. Evans participated in 13 games as a true freshman, all on special teams, and recorded 15 tackles, including two for a loss, and one sack.
Evans continued to play primarily on special teams and as a reserve outside linebacker in his sophomore year (2015). However, the fact that he recorded two sacks against Clemson in the game that won the national championship that year helped put him on the radar of many evaluators.
In 2017, Evans was selected for the All-SEC Second Team after starting all 12 games for his team, recording 74 tackles (tied for the team lead), leading the team with 13 tackles for loss (most on the team), recording six sacks, and intercepting three passes.
