Mike Evans - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

'Questionable at best' for Week 10 Evans (Achilles), who won't play in Sunday's game against the Raiders, appears to be "questionable at best" for next Sunday's road matchup with the Cowboys, Ian Rapoport of NFL Net...

Impact Evans is missing a second straight contest Sunday after aggravating a right Achilles injury during a Week 6 win against the Commanders. He hasn't been able to practice in the meantime, and while he's the type of player that doesn't require practice reps during the week to be available on game days, even work on the side Wednesday through Friday would be a welcome sign. In any case, with fellow WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) also sidelined this weekend and Christian Kirk (knee) being placed on IR on Saturday, Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Watkins, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and KhaDarel Hodge are the options at the position to be active in Week 9.

Won't play Sunday Evans (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports.

Impact GM John Lynch said on KNBR radio Thursday that Evans is unlikely to play in Week 9 due to the right Achilles injury he aggravated in Week 6 against the Commanders, per Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area. After not practicing in any capacity Wednesday and Thursday, Evans indeed will miss a third consecutive contest. Fellow WRs Deebo Samuel (hamstring) and Christian Kirk (knee) will join Evans on the sideline Sunday, leaving Jordan Watkins, Brandin Cooks and Jacob Cowing as the only options at the position on the 49ers' active roster. The team also may activate Demarcus Robinson (ankle) from IR on Saturday after he was listed as questionable.

Not seen at Friday's practice Evans (Achilles) didn't participate in the portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact With Evans now having been absent from the media-viewing portion of practice again Friday, his status for Sunday's game against the Raiders remains in serious doubt. After a round of likely DNPs, Evans' return may have to wait until Week 10, though the veteran wideout has been known to play despite logging DNPs. It could be another patchwork week at wide receiver for the Niners.

No practice Thursday Evans (Achilles) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Impact After back-to-back DNPs to open Week 9 prep, Evans technically has one more chance to mix into drills this week, but GM John Lynch said on KNBR radio Thursday that the wide receiver likely won't be available Sunday versus the Raiders due to his lingering right Achilles issue, per Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area. The 49ers may make a ruling on Evans' status as soon as they post Friday's injury report.

Misses open portion Thursday Evans (Achilles) did not participate in the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Evans' absence Thursday comes as no surprise considering GM John Lynch stated earlier in the day that Evans is unlikely to return Sunday against the Raiders. Barring an unexpectedly quick recovery, Evans will sit out a second consecutive game sandwiched around San Francisco's Week 8 bye before possible returning in Week 10 at Dallas. At 6-1, the 49ers can afford to take a cautious approach with the top option in their injury-riddled wide receiver room.

NFL Fact Or Fiction: Bears Going To The Super Bowl? Seahawks To Miss Playoffs?

Likely to sit Sunday per GM Evans (Achilles) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Raiders, 49ers GM John Lynch said on KNBR radio Thursday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact The 49ers were initially optimistic that Evans would return after the team's Week 8 bye following an absence during the Week 7 loss to Atlanta, but the veteran wide receiver apparently needs more time to recover. While official confirmation on Evans' status is unlikely to come prior to game designations being released Friday, Lynch's comments coupled with Evans' inability to practice Wednesday suggest Evans' fantast managers should have an alternative option in place for Week 9.

Won't practice Wednesday Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Evans (Achilles) won't practice Wednesday, NFL reporter Andrew Siciliano reports.

Impact Evans sat out a Week 7 loss in Atlanta after aggravating a right Achilles injury in Week 6 against the Commanders, and while there's an expectation that he'll be back of a Week 8 bye, he'll kick off this week with a DNP. He thus will have two more chances to mix into drills ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Raiders.

The Week 7 Plays That Stood Out: The 49ers' Woes To The Seahawks' Dominant Defense

Banged-up 49ers limp into their bye week after a 29-20 loss to the Falcons

For most of the first half, it looked as if the banged-up San Francisco 49ers were poised to head into their bye week with seven straight wins and an undefeated record

OCTOBER 26 • Associated Press

Expected back after bye week Evans (Achilles) is expected to return after San Francisco's Week 8 bye, David Lombardi of SF Standard reports.

Impact After missing Sunday's game against the Falcons with the Achilles issue, Evans appears to be trending toward a return for San Francisco's next contest in Week 9 against the Raiders. Working as the Niners' big-play X receiver this season, Evans has been nearly unstoppable when healthy. Maintaining health has been his biggest issue. When on the field, Evans is a fantasy WR2 with WR1 upside.

Mike Evans ruled out by the 49ers for Week 7 game against the Falcons

San Francisco 49ers star receiver Mike Evans will miss Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons because of Achilles tendinitis

OCTOBER 23 • Associated Press

Ruled out for Week 7 Evans (Achilles) is out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Impact This comes as no surprise after Evans was unable to practice all week following Monday night's early departure against the Commanders. The Niners have a Week 8 bye, and the team hopes Evans will be able to be ready to return following that off week. San Francisco should get Christian Kirk (calf) back from injured reserve this Sunday. He'd join Jordan Watkins and Brandin Cooks atop the depth chart.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Not spotted at practice Friday Evans (Achilles) wasn't present at the start of Friday's practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Impact Evans appears poised to miss every Week 7 practice after he aggravated a right Achilles injury in Monday's win against the Commanders. The 49ers may make a ruling on Evans' availability for Sunday's game in Atlanta once the team posts its final injury report of the week Friday.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Misses Thursday's practice Evans (ribs/Achilles) didn't practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Evans officially logged a second consecutive DNP after he made an early exit from Monday's win against the Commanders due to an aggravation of a right Achilles' injury, which head coach Kyle Shanahan has called soreness, per Wagoner. While Evans now has just one more chance to mix into drills this week, he's proved in the past that he doesn't require practice reps to be available on game days. Whether or not he has a chance to play Sunday in Atlanta will become known once the 49ers post their final Week 7 injury report Friday.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Not spotted Thursday Evans (Achilles) wasn't present for the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Impact Evans has yet to practice since aggravating his right Achilles during Monday's win against the Commanders, which forced him out just before halftime of that contest. Coach Kyle Shanahan called the injury "soreness" afterward, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, and at the same time he said he doesn't believe the wide receiver has a long-term injury. Evans doesn't need to practice in order to make himself available on game day, but Friday's injury report will reveal if he has a chance to play Sunday in Atlanta.
