News: 1 hour agoEvans brought in five of six targets for 68 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Spin: Making his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Evans finished with a team-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.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Evans is entering his 11th NFL season (all with Tampa Bay) after signing an extension during the offseason. The future Hall of Famer has produced 1,000-plus receiving yards in each of his first 10 seasons and actually posted the third-most receiving yards and matched the second-highest TD total of his career in 2023. Evans' seventh-place finish in fantasy points marked his best finish since 2016 and he's never finished a campaign worse than 23rd. Evans is nearing the end of his career, but at age-31, he likely still has another year of high-end play left in the tank. As long as Baker Mayfield is under center, Evans will remain, at worst, a good WR2.
