Mike Evans Has A Chance To Return Before Playoffs
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring), who is out in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers, has a chance to return in the regular season, according to a source. Evans' hamstring injury isn't considered too serious and he was listed as week-to-week earlier in the week, so there's a chance that he could return in either Week 17 or Week 18. Fantasy managers that advance in the playoffs are obviously hoping that Evans will be able to return in Week 17. Chris Godwin (knee) is out for the rest of the year, so Evans will have even more WR1 upside whenever he returns to the field. We'll monitor his practice status closely heading into a great matchup against the New York Jets next week. Tyler Johnson and Antonio Brown are operating as Tampa's top two receivers with Evans and Godwin out in Week 16.
