Mike Evans News
Sunday, August 23, 5:21 PM
ESPN's Nick Wagoner reports San Francisco 49ers wideout Mike Evans (ankle) participated in much of practice on Sunday, but did not go all the way through it and stopped participating near the end. Wagoner noted that Evans was "moving fine," and connected with quarterback Brock Purdy for a big gain during practice. However, Evans and the 49ers want to be cautious to get him ready for Week 1 against division rival Los Angeles Rams in Melbourne, Australia. Evans had some tightness in his quad earlier this week and had his left foot/ankle wrapped and iced. The 33-year-old is expected to be the No. 1 receiver in the offense this year and will have a big role in the passing game, especially in the red zone. If Evans can play a full 17-game season, he will have an opportunity to lead the league in receiving touchdowns in 2026.

Michael Wilson News
Saturday, August 22, 12:05 PM
Arizona Cardinals wideout Michael Wilson is coming off a career year where he set career-best marks in targets, receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. The 26-year-old finished as the WR10 overall in PPR scoring and averaged 13.0 fantasy points per game. Wilson quickly established a connection with Jacoby Brissett and reaped the benefits of Marvin Harrison Jr. missing an extended amount of time due to injuries. However, in the three games Harrison played over 70 percent of the snaps after Week 6, Wilson averaged 7.9 points per game and failed to surpass double-digit fantasy points. In addition, Wilson averaged 4.9 points per game during the first seven weeks of the season when Harrison was on the field. It will be intriguing to see if Harrison and Wilson can coexist in Mike LaFleur's new offense. If not, Wilson could fade to being off fantasy radars in season-long leagues again.
