Mike Evans Carries WR2 Value in Week 17

Friday, December 26, 3:07 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has seen heavy involvement in the passing game since making his return to the field two weeks ago. Since Week 15, Evans has hauled in 11 of his 21 targets for 163 yards with one touchdown. He figures to continue being a focal point on offense heading into the Week 17 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. This Dolphins' defense has been middle of the pack when it comes to defending wide receivers this season. Clearly, Evans is a favorite target for quarterback Baker Mayfield. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Evans as a WR2 for this game.

Mecole Hardman News

Mecole Hardman Active for Week 16

Sunday, December 21, 12:14 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mecole Hardman (calf) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. Hardman was activated off Injured Reserve on Saturday and will play in place of Keon Coleman, who will serve as a healthy inactive for the third time this season. Hardman was upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday after being limited on Wednesday. The former Kansas City Chiefs wideout landed on IR after injuring his calf in his first game with the Bills in Week 11's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hardman is unlikely to play a major role in the Bills' spread-out passing attack and shouldn't be in any fantasy lineups in Week 16.
