Playing career

Rugby union

Evans started his career with rugby union side Llanelli. He spent three seasons with the club in the Welsh Premiership, scoring 27 tries in 57 appearances,[5] and was called up by Scarlets to play in the Anglo-Welsh Cup.[citation needed]

After one season in the English Championship with Moseley, he returned to Wales in 2016, joining Merthyr. In 2018, he won the Welsh Premiership Player of the Year award.[6]

In May 2019, Evans returned to the English Championship, signing a two-year contract with Doncaster Knights.[5]

Rugby league

Evans spent time training with rugby league side Leeds Rhinos after being recommended to the club by Doncaster coach Francis Cummins, who had previously played for Leeds, but his spell at the club was cut short due to lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]

In June 2022, Evans signed a contract with Wakefield Trinity after a successful trial.[8] He made his début in the Super League against the Wigan Warriors.[9]

Evans was named in the Wales squad for the 2021 Rugby League World Cup.[10] He made his debut against Tonga, scoring Wales' only try in a 6–32 defeat.
