Mike Evans's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had seemingly no issues against the Los Angeles Chargers defense on Sunday. The veteran wideout gave a somewhat disappointing outing last week, but came ready to play in Week 15. Evans hauled in nine of his 11 targets for 159 yards and two touchdowns in the blowout win. The 31-year-old missed some practice time this week due to a hamstring issue, but it didn't look like it bothered him on Sunday. Evans and quarterback Baker Mayfield have great chemistry together and it showed this weekend. Fantasy managers should continue to lean on Evans as a WR1 for next week's matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. The same Cowboys that just lost top defensive back Trevon Diggs (knee) for the season.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Evans missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday before returning for a limited session on Friday. It appears that was enough for the team to clear Evans for this weekend. The veteran wideout has racked up three straight games of 68 receiving yards or more since returning from injury. He does have a tougher challenge this week against a solid Chargers secondary. Despite that, Evans should be able to produce low-end WR1 value for this Week 15 matchup.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was seen working on the field at the portion of practice open to the media on Friday after sitting out of practice the two previous days. The Bucs are taking it easy on the 31-year-old veteran late in the year after he previously missed several games due to a hamstring injury in the middle of the season. He also missed two practices last week before suiting up for the Week 14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Evans played 85 percent of the offensive snaps in that game and hauled in four of his five targets for 69 yards. The matchup against the Bolts won't be as easy, but Evans will continue to be quarterback Baker Mayfield's top target, and he deserves a starting lineup spot in Week 15. Since returning from his hammy injury in Week 12, Evans has 17 catches for 255 yards and a touchdown on 23 targets.
