Mike Evans to Miss 3-4 Weeks With Moderate Hamstring Strain
Mike Evans (hamstring) will miss three to four weeks due to a moderate hamstring strain that he suffered in the Week 3 win over the New York Jets, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. The Bucs don't think Evans' hamstring injury is as severe as the one that cost him four weeks last year, but the 32-year-old future Hall of Famer is going to miss at least a couple of weeks. The good news is that Tampa could be getting Chris Godwin (ankle) back in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles for the first time since he dislocated his ankle in Week 7 of 2024. Rookie first-round wideout Emeka Egbuka is probably going to operate as the WR1 with Evans out as the team eases Godwin back into the fold. Sterling Shepard will also see an uptick in targets out of the slot, and he's worth a look on the waiver wire for some added short-term production.
