Filling in for Marcus Smith, inset, whilst the England playmaker was away at the World Cup, Evans has proved to be a very able deputy, notably winning the game down at Bristol for his new club with a late 45-metre penalty.
"I have come up here and I just want to enjoy my rugby and so far, so good," said the eight-times capped player, who last represented Wales in July 2021.
"It's a massive club, Quins, I've followed them since I was little boy. I remember some big European nights, those games against Stade and things like that.
"I'd have been a very little boy watching at my grandfather's house. They are probably the two best back-to-back games I have seen on TV, it was amazing, and ever since then I have kept a bit of an eye on Quins.
