Mike Evans Not Concerned With Aggravating Hamstring Injury
2 hours agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring), who is expected to play in Week 12 against the New York Giants despite a questionable tag on the final injury report, said he had no concerns about aggravating his right hamstring in his return this Sunday. Evans sustained the injury in Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens while he was already dealing with a hamstring injury in the same leg but in a different location of the muscle. The future Hall of Famer has missed the last three games, tied for the longest absence in his amazing career. Head coach Todd Bowles did leave open the possibility of pulling Evans on Sunday if needed, but fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to put Evans back in their starting lineups this weekend as quarterback Baker Mayfield's clear top target in the passing game. Evans needs to average 95 receiving yards per game the rest of 2024 to tie Jerry Rice's NFL-record 11 straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons.
