Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Amon-Ra St. Brown

Wednesday, October 22, 7:47 PM

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers officially placed veteran wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday after he broke his clavicle in Monday night's loss to the Detroit Lions, according to Scott Smith of Buccaneers.com. Evans will be forced to miss at least four games while on IR, but his absence is expected to be much longer than that. However, he reportedly suffered a clean break of his collarbone and could return to the team in under eight weeks if his rehab goes well. Head coach Todd Bowles said it would be "touch and go" as to whether Evans will be able to get back on the field before the end of the regular season. Fantasy managers can go ahead and drop the future Hall of Famer in redraft leagues. It's a tough blow for Evans, who had just returned from a three-game absence due to a hamstring strain. He will finish shy of 1,000 receiving yards in 2025 for the first time in his 12 NFL seasons.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught six of 10 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 24-9 win over Tampa Bay. St. Brown scored his league leading seventh receiving touchdown on the season and continues his outstanding season. His streak of five straight games with at least seven receptions came to an end, but it was still a very productive day for the stud wideout. The 25-year-old has continued to dominate against Tampa Bay, finding the end zone three times in four career matchups. He'll enter Week 9 against the Vikings as a top fantasy option following Detroit's Week 8 bye.
