Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Keon Coleman

Tuesday, December 9, 11:30 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) was spotted at practice on Tuesday, according to Greg Auman of Fox Sports. The veteran wideout has been on Injured Reserve since Week 7 with a broken collarbone, but he practiced in a limited capacity on Monday and was apparently on the field in some capacity on Tuesday. Evans could make his return in his team's Week 15 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night. Multiple injuries have limited Evans to just four games so far in 2025. Across those contests, he's recorded 14 catches for 140 yards and a touchdown on 32 targets. While Evans would likely re-assume his WR1 status in Tampa Bay upon his return, the Buccaneers could choose to work him in slowly, given his extended absence. Fantasy managers should check back throughout the week to see if he's able to get in a full practice before Thursday.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman returned in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers after serving as a healthy inactive the past two games due to disciplinary reasons. Coleman hauled in two of his three targets for nine yards and his fourth touchdown of the season. The second-year wideout hasn't taken the step forward as the team's WR1 as many had hoped, recording 34 receptions for 339 yards and four touchdowns on 52 targets in 10 games. Since his monster Week 1 performance when he collected eight receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown on a season-high 11 targets, he's been held below 50 yards in every game. Coleman has some momentum heading into Week 14 against the Bengals after scoring in back-to-back games, but he isn't a trustworthy fantasy option in 12-team leagues at this stage of the season.
