Should I Start Mike Evans?

Sunday, September 27, 2:43 PM

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (rib) is dealing with a rib strain and is set to undergo a full evaluation on Monday. Evans was lifted early from Sunday's contest against the Arizona Cardinals with a rib injury, as he was carted off the field. Rapoport noted that these types of injuries can be quite painful. Managers should pay close attention to his status during the early stages of the week, as he could be in danger of sitting out of their Week 4 contest against the Denver Broncos. Evans entered this weekend's contest with a questionable tag due to a hip injury but may now be dealing with something more serious. Before exiting, Evans made an impact, catching three of his six targets for 34 yards and a score. While he remains out, tight end George Kittle and wideout Deebo Samuel Sr. should operate as Brock Purdy's go-to options in the passing attack.
