Tears top off defense Sunday Evans had nine receptions on 11 targets for 159 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-17 win over the Chargers.

Impact Evans showed no ill effects from the hamstring injury that limited him during the practice week, ripping off two long touchdown receptions in Sunday's lopsided victory. The nine receptions and 159 yards both marked new highs for the superstar wideout in 2024. Evans likely helped many fantasy managers advance in their respective playoff schedule, and he could be in for an encore against a middling Cowboys squad on Sunday Night Football in Week 16.

Cleared for Sunday Evans (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Evans followed the same pattern as last week, returning to practice Friday as a limited participant after missing the prior sessions. His lack of reps seems to be a matter of maintenance rather than inspired by genuine concern about his game availability, considering he took 85 percent of snaps on offense in last week's 28-13 win over the Raiders. Evans should again be busy Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles.

Returns to practice Evans (hamstring) returned to practice Friday morning, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Evans had the same routine last week, sitting out Wednesday and Thursday before participating Friday. He then avoided a designation on the final injury report and handled his normal workload in a 28-13 win over the Raiders, catching four of five targets for 69 yards while playing 85 percent of snaps on offense. It remains to be seen if he follows the same pattern this week for a road game against the Chargers.

Idle for another practice Evans (hamstring) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Evans didn't take any reps during Wednesday's walk-through session and looks set to be listed as a non-participant on the Buccaneers' second straight practice report. While the lack of activity at this stage of the week is normally a worrisome sign for a player's chances of playing Sunday, Evans started Week 14 prep in a similar fashion before suiting up for Tampa Bay's 28-13 win over Las Vegas and finishing with four catches for 69 yards on five targets while playing 85 percent of the offensive snaps. If he continues to mirror his participation from last week, Evans will be limited in Friday's session, which could be enough for him to avoid carrying a designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Misses Wednesday's walkthrough Evans (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Evans continues to be bothered by a hamstring issue that sidelined him Weeks 8-10, but he's been able to play through it over the last three contest, accounting for 17 catches (on 23 targets) for 255 yards and one touchdown. He's clearly the centerpiece of the Buccaneers' passing game when he's available, but his status now will be watched as the week goes on to get a sense of his odds to play Sunday at the Chargers.

Four catches in win Evans secured four of five targets for 69 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-13 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Impact Evans tied Sterling Shepard and Jalen McMillan for the team lead in receptions while checking in second in receiving yards. The veteran wideout got a big chunk of his production on a 32-yard grab, which was the second longest of the game for the Buccaneers. Evans has eclipsed 60 receiving yards in three straight games heading into a Week 15 road battle against the Chargers.

Cleared for Week 14 Evans (hamstring/calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Evans was a limited practice participant Friday after sitting out the previous two days. It seems his absences were a matter of maintenance rather than reflecting genuine concern about his Week 14 availability. Evans put up an 8-112-1 receiving line against Carolina last week in his second game back from a hamstring injury.

Practicing Friday Evans (hamstring/calf) is practicing Friday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Impact His participation after back-to-back absences suggests Evans has a decent chance to play this Sunday against the Raiders. He'll likely have a designation on the final injury report Friday afternoon.

No practice Thursday Evans (hamstring/calf) officially didn't practice Thursday.

Impact Evans thus has just one more chance to mix into drills during Week 14 prep as he deals with dueling health concerns. The 11th-year pro doesn't necessarily require practice reps in order to be ready for game day, but his listing on Friday's injury report will be of interest in advance of Sunday's contest against the Raiders.

Missing from practice Evans (hamstring/calf) wasn't spotted on the field during the portion of Thursday's practice that was open to the media, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Though Evans was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice, his continued absence Thursday perhaps suggests that he wasn't merely getting a maintenance day to begin Week 14 prep. Tampa Bay head coach Todd Bowles could shed more light on Evans' condition later Thursday, but for now, the star wideout's status bears close attention as Sunday's game against the Raiders approaches. Evans will have one more opportunity Friday to potentially fit in some practice activity before the weekend.

Tending to two health concerns Evans didn't practice Wednesday due to hamstring and calf injuries.

Impact Evans was sidelined Weeks 8-10 due to a strained right hamstring, so its mention may be a residual of that injury. But with a pair of lower-body issues now in tow, his status will be watched as the week goes on to see if he may be in danger off missing another contest.

First 100-yard game of 2024 Evans recorded eight receptions on 12 targets for 118 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win against the Panthers.

Impact Evans began his performance with a highlight-reel two-yard touchdown catch late in the first quarter and operated as Baker Mayfield's top target from there. On top of the impressive grab in the end zone, Evans also topped the century mark for the first time in 2024 thanks to lengthy receptions of 27, 21 and 17 yards. He's also unsurprisingly operated as one of Tampa Bay's best offensive weapons near the end zone, as he now has seven touchdowns in nine games on the campaign.

Team-high yardage total in return Evans brought in five of six targets for 68 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Impact Making his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Evans finished with a game-high receiving yardage total while checking in second in both receptions and targets. The veteran wideout looked as healthy as he proclaimed he was coming into the game and contributed a 26-yard grab among his five catches. Evans, whose catch and yardage totals Sunday were his highest since Week 4, will next take aim at a vulnerable Panthers defense in a Week 13 road divisional battle.
