Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was once again practicing on Thursday. Evans has missed the team's last three games with a right-hamstring injury, but he was limited in Wednesday's session and is planning to return following the bye for Sunday's contest against the New York Giants in Week 12. The 31-year-old might need to return to a full practice by Friday to avoid a questionable tag, but all signs are pointing toward him being available this weekend as Tampa's top wideout. The Giants haven't been the best matchup for opposing receivers this year, but Evans should have a normal workload on Sunday and deserves to be returned to all starting fantasy lineups if he's active. Evans' 11.8 half-PPR points per game this year has him ranked as the No. 21 fantasy wideout. He could see even more targets with Chris Godwin (ankle) out for the year.

The NFL's Ian Rapoport reports that Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) will undergo surgery on Wednesday to repair his dislocated ankle. Rapoport noted that tests done leading up to surgery were "as good as they could've been," according to sources. Additionally, there is an outside shot Godwin could return in 2024, depending on how late in the winter the Bucs play. However, the likelihood of such an outcome is not very good. With fellow wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) expected to miss time through Week 11, Tampa Bay is suddenly reeling on offense. It'd not be surprising to see the team seek veteran help, but in the meantime, wide receivers Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer, and Sterling Shepherd will attempt to fill the void. Running back Rachaad White and tight end Cade Otton should also continue to see an uptick in usage.
