Mike Evans Carted Off with Rib/Chest Injury

Sunday, September 27, 1:38 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (rib, chest) was forced to exit during the first half of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Evans needed to be carted off the field after suffering a rib/chest injury, Matt Lively reports. It appears the injury made it difficult for Evans to walk or breathe. Before leaving, Evans hauled in three of his six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown. Fantasy managers should consider Evans as questionable to return to this contest. Deebo Samuel Sr., Jacob Cowing, and KhaDarel Hodge will be asked to step up for this offense in his absence. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for more updates on Evans during the second half of this game.

Khalil Shakir Could Benefit From Buffalo's Injuries

Saturday, September 26, 5:40 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught three of six targets for 38 yards against Detroit after posting four catches for 50 yards on six targets in the opener. The production has been modest, but 12 targets through two games have kept him involved in a passing attack with plenty of mouths to feed. His Week 3 outlook gets more interesting because DJ Moore and Keon Coleman are both questionable and will be game-time decisions. If either is unavailable, Shakir should have a cleaner path to targets against Los Angeles. Dalton Kincaid has commanded plenty of work early, so Shakir still does not have a huge ceiling without an injury ahead of him. RotoBaller ranks him as the WR44 for Week 3. He is a PPR flex option whose appeal would rise if Buffalo is missing one of its outside receivers.
