Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Jordan Addison

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans impressed during Thursday's joint practice with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Evans won a red-zone battle against cornerback Jalen Ramsey for a two-point conversion, then capped the day by hauling in a touchdown from Baker Mayfield during a two-minute drill. After posting a "down year" in 2024 with 1,004 yards and 11 touchdowns, Evans looks determined to return to elite form in 2025. The veteran remains one of the NFL's most reliable end-zone threats, and fantasy managers should consider him a steady WR2 with WR1 upside heading into draft season.

Minnesota Vikings wide receivers Jordan Addison and Tai Felton both left Wednesday's training camp practice with what looked like arm/hand injuries, according to Kevin Seifert of ESPN. Both players stayed on the sidelines but didn't return to the practice field. It's unclear what the severity of their injuries is, but with Justin Jefferson (hamstring) and Jalen Nailor (hand) still out, the first-team widouts to end practice on Wednesday were Lucky Jackson, Jeshaun Jones and Thayer Thomas. The 23-year-old Addison will already miss the first three games of the 2025 season due to a suspension, but now he could also be rehabbing an injury early in the year. Minnesota's receiver depth is being tested heading into the season, which has them keeping an eye on the receiver trade market. Addison, who has become one of the better WR2s in the NFL, has fallen to WR43 at RotoBaller because of his three-game suspension.
