Mike Evans Agrees to Join the 49ers

Monday, March 9, 11:00 AM

Future Hall of Fame wide receiver Mike Evans has agreed to terms on an undisclosed three-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers on Monday, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Evans' 13th year in the NFL will be his first away from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 32-year-old veteran opened his career with 11 straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons before suffering hamstring and collarbone injuries in 2025 that limited him to a career-low eight starts. Evans caught 30 of his 62 targets last year for 368 yards and three touchdowns. The six-time Pro Bowler will now be seeking a second Super Bowl ring in the Bay Area as the Niners' clear No. 1 target for quarterback Blake Purdy. Injuries are a bigger issue for the aging wideout, but if healthy, Evans could have a WR1 ceiling again in fantasy football in head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense.

Romeo Doubs News

Romeo Doubs Will Help Fill the Void at Wideout for Patriots

Wednesday, March 11, 8:04 AM

The New England Patriots agreed to a four-year, $68 million deal with former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs on Wednesday, and The Athletic's Chad Graff believes he "can make up for a lot of the production over the middle" that former receiver Stefon Diggs brought in 2025. Doubs can also play on the outside and should help New England's red-zone woes (20 of his 23 career touchdowns have come in the red zone). Doubs is only 25 years old and also thrives on the deep ball, which has become a specialty for quarterback Drake Maye. Diggs finished the regular season last year with 1,017 receiving yards and four touchdowns. In Green Bay, Doubs had 724 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 55 receptions in 16 regular-season games. It's certainly a great landing spot for Doubs' fantasy value going into 2026, but his true ceiling will depend on what else the Pats do at the position in free agency, via trade, and in the NFL draft in April.
