Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Mike Evans aims for career milestones on Monday Night Football

With Henry and Evans participating in the Week 7 matchup, it will be the first time since Week 3 of the 2020 season that the active leaders in rushing and receiving touchdowns will face off.

The last time it happened was between receiver Larry Fitzgerald of the Arizona Cardinals and running back Adrian Peterson, then with the Detroit Lions.

This contest also marks the last time two players with 100 career touchdowns each played in the same game. Henry currently has 102 career touchdowns and Evans has exactly 100, while he is just one receiver score shy of the century mark in that category alone.

If the Ravens as a team reach 168 total rushing yards against the Bucs, they will become the fourth team since 1980 with 1,400 rushing yards or more in the first seven games of a season and the latest to do so since they themselves reached that mark in 2019.

On the Buccaneers' defensive side, safety Antoine Winfield Jr. is tied for the second-most sacks by a defensive back in the first five years of his career, with half a sack from matching and a full sack from passing by Bill Bates (15.5). This statistic dates back to 1982, when sacks became an official statistic. Jamal Adams scored 21.5 points in his first five seasons, holding the record for the most points scored by a player in the first five years of his career.

Whenever Evans gets his 100th touchdown reception, he will join Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, Marvin Harrison and Randy Moss as just the fifth player to do so in his first 11 seasons. New York Jets receiver Davante Adams is also looking for that milestone but already played in Week 7.

Finally, Henry needs a game with 100 yards rushing and two rushing touchdowns to tie Emmitt Smith for the third-most games with that stat line or better. Smith accomplished this 21 times in his NFL career, most notably while playing for the Dallas Cowboys.
