Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans caught three of his seven targets for 48 yards in the blowout Wild Card win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Evans had a few key drops in Monday night's contest, or he could've had a monster outing. Either way, the Buccaneers are on to the next round of the NFL Playoffs and will face the Detroit Lions at Ford Field on Sunday. The Lions allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers during the regular season, so Evans will have the chance to bounce back from his disappointing performance in his eighth career playoff game.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton caught eight of his 11 targets for 89 yards in the Wild Card victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night. Those figures were all career-highs for the second-year tight end, and he picked a great time to have his best outing. Given his cheap price tag in DFS tournaments, he paid off significantly for DFS gamers. Next up for Otton is a road contest against the Detroit Lions in the NFC Divisional Round. The Lions have surrendered the seventh-most fantasy points per game to tight end this year, so look for him to build on his productive day.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White rushed 18 times for 72 yards and caught one of his three targets for three yards in the 32-9 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Monday's Wild Card contest. White remained a high-volume running back in this spot, but he did not find the end zone, resulting in a down fantasy and DFS performance. Next week, he'll go on the road to face the Detroit Lions, who surrendered the fewest fantasy points per game to running backs during the regular season.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 22 of his 36 passing attempts for 337 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions in the Wild Card win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He earned his second career playoff win and a trip to the Divisional Round to face the Detroit Lions. Detroit surrendered the second-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks during the regular season, setting Mayfield up for another potential big game on Sunday. He failed to throw a touchdown in the Week 6 meeting at Tampa Bay, so he'll hope to turn it around this time.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle, ribs), who was questionable to play in Monday night's wild-card playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles, is officially active. Mayfield tweaked his ankle in Week 18 against the Carolina Panthers but was able to practice last week and was fully expected to play in the first round of the playoffs. The 28-year-old is one of the tougher QBs in the league and had the best season of his career in his first year in Tampa, but he's heading into this contest with two straight down performances. Mayfield certainly won't be 100 percent on Monday night, but he has a great chance for a bounce-back performance in the wild-card playoff game against an Eagles defense that has seen a big decline in all aspects after making a Super Bowl run last year.
