Mike Evans, Mike Evans Logs Full Practice On Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was upgraded to a full participant during Thursday's practice, which puts him on schedule to return to action this weekend, according to Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports. Evans was a limited participant during Wednesday's initial practice session. The 31-year-old wideout has been sidelined since sustaining this injury during their Week 7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Before the injury, Evans averaged 13.6 PPR points per game while seeing 6.4 targets per game. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during Friday's practice, but given this update, he should be expected to return to the field this Sunday. Despite his slow start during the start of the season, fantasy managers should feel confident starting Evans in all formats against the New York Giants.

Sean Tucker, Bucs Want To Give Sean Tucker Touches In Every Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen said the team needs to be more aware of getting running back Sean Tucker touches in every game. The team self-scouted during the Week 11 bye and is looking to Tucker more involved. The second-year back out of Syracuse flashed with 136 rushing yards, 56 receiving yards, and two total touchdowns in the Week 6 win over the New Orleans Saints but has not seen more than six touches in a game since. In Week 10, he did not handle a single touch. This is good news for Tucker fantasy managers in deep leagues, but Rachaad White and Bucky Irving could be even more uncertain fantasy outlooks down the stretch as a result. The usage of the Tampa Bay running backs should be heavily monitored in Week 12 against the New York Giants.

Mike Evans, Mike Evans Practicing Again On Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was once again practicing on Thursday. Evans has missed the team's last three games with a right-hamstring injury, but he was limited in Wednesday's session and is planning to return following the bye for Sunday's contest against the New York Giants in Week 12. The 31-year-old might need to return to a full practice by Friday to avoid a questionable tag, but all signs are pointing toward him being available this weekend as Tampa's top wideout. The Giants haven't been the best matchup for opposing receivers this year, but Evans should have a normal workload on Sunday and deserves to be returned to all starting fantasy lineups if he's active. Evans' 11.8 half-PPR points per game this year has him ranked as the No. 21 fantasy wideout. He could see even more targets with Chris Godwin (ankle) out for the year.

Mike Evans, Mike Evans Practicing Again On Wednesday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was seen on the practice field again on Wednesday. We won't know exactly how much Evans did in practice until the team releases their official report later in the day, but all signs are trending toward him returning to action this Sunday to take on the New York Giants coming out of the team's bye. He missed the last three games due to a right-hamstring ailment and said he probably could have pushed to return for the Week 10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The 31-year-old future Hall of Famer should be returned to all fantasy lineups this weekend if he's active as the clear WR1 for the Bucs now that Chris Godwin (ankle) is out for the season. When healthy, Evans has averaged 11.8 half-PPR points in seven games, which ranks 21st among all pass-catchers.

Mike Evans, Mike Evans Seen At Practice On Monday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was seen on the practice field on Monday morning for a bonus practice with the team coming out of their bye in Week 11. Evans said he could have tried to push through and play in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers, but Week 12 against the New York Giants after the bye was his target all along. Barring a setback once official practices begin on Wednesday, it looks like Evans will be back this Sunday for fantasy managers. A right-hamstring strain kept the 31-year-old future Hall of Fame pass-catcher out of action for the team's last three games. With Chris Godwin (ankle) done for the year, Evans will operate as Tampa's clear-cut WR1 the rest of the way. Evans will draw more attention from opposing defenses, but he should receive plenty of volume to make him a must-start in fantasy once he's back.
