Mike Evans
WR - Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Questionable
Availability
Mike Evans (collarbone) was officially limited at practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
The Buccaneers recently designated Evans to return from injured reserve. He has been out for a large part of the season due to a broken collarbone, but the team looks to be getting him back for a late season push. His return, whenever it comes, will mean less work for Chris Godwin Jr. (fibula) moving forward.
Mike Evans (collarbone) will have his practice window opened on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Evans has been medically cleared and will be on the practice field Wednesday. The six-time Pro-Bowler has not played since Week 7, and he has not caught a pass since Week 3. That all could change this week, but Evans is a bit ahead of schedule. His status should be monitored throughout the week.
Mike Evans (collarbone) could return as soon as this week, per HC Todd Bowles.
Fantasy Impact
Evans suffered a broken collarbone back in mid-October, after missing several games with a hamstring injury. If he returns, that would be a great help to a recovering Tampa offense that has seen the returns of Chris Godwin and Bucky Irving in recent weeks.
Mike Evans (collarbone) is making progress and could return in the coming weeks.
Fantasy Impact
When asked about his status, coach Todd Bowles was optimistic that Evans would return this season. He is set for medical scans soon, which will help determine the plan the Bucs will take for the veteran wide receiver. If all goes well, he could be back on the field as soon as Week 14 or 15.
Bucs coach Todd Bowles said it will be “touch and go” whether Mike Evans is able to return to action before the end of the regular season.
Fantasy Impact
Evans went down with a brutal injury in Monday's loss against the Lions that was expected to sideline him for most of the season. For now, he is out indefinitely.
