Mike Evans Won't Return In Week 18
2 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (illness) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 18 versus the Atlanta Falcons. He did not log a target before exiting. Tampa Bay has already secured the No. 4 seed in the playoffs, so it makes sense that they would exercise extreme caution with their players' health. Chris Godwin and Russell Gage should step up in Evans' absence, though those two receivers could also be taken out of the game since the final outcome has no playoff implications. The same goes for Tom Brady, Leonard Fournette, and other Buccaneers starters.
