2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
It seems that Mike Evans will never slow down. In 2023, he extended his 1000-yard streak to 10-straight years and had one of his best seasons at 30 years old. This came in a season where Evans had plenty of doubters due to his age and uncertain quarterback situation. Evans had elite fantasy production and looked the part on the field as well. Nothing from his season seemed flukey and he proved to still be an elite receiver.

The fantasy community seems more than willing to bet on Evans heading into his age 31 season. He comes off the board as the WR17, a price that seems to bake in the fact that he may not be able to reproduce his 13 touchdowns from a year ago.

Similar to Mayfield, we can expect 2024 to be more of the same from a usage and production standpoint for Evans. He should see a high number of targets with a deep aDOT that can lead to big plays and spike weeks. With Mayfield proving to be capable of supporting this offense and Evans showing no signs of slowing down, he seems to be a reliable pick in fantasy drafts this season.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury Mike Evans set to play Week 12, will he be limited?
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Nov 22, 1:24 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Bucs HC Todd Bowles on how much his team will use Mike Evans’ in his return Sunday vs. the Giants after he had missed the past three games due to a hamstring injury: “We’ll play him as long as he’s healthy and fresh. If he needs to be in there, he’ll be in there, but we’ll get him out when we have to.” (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: Evans last played in Week 7 and is expected to make his return this week against the Giants. Bowles' comments leave the door open for Evans to be limited in this game, but fantasy owners should feel confident about his WR2 likelihood with low-end WR1 upside in this matchup.


Injury Chris Godwin out for the season
Suffered dislocated ankle in Week 7
By: Doug Orth | Tue Oct 22, 5:25 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Buccaneers' Chris Godwin will undergo surgery for a dislocated left ankle and will likely be done for the year, coach Todd Bowles said Tuesday, one day after the star wide receiver was carted off the field in the final minute of a "Monday Night Football" loss to the Baltimore Ravens. "There's a chance if we make a late playoff run, he could be back," Bowles said of Godwin, whom he said did have some additional structural damage to the ankle, "but he's undergoing surgery and he's going to be out." (ESPN.com - Jenna Laine)

FFToday's Take: Godwin was injured in the final minute of the team's 41-31 loss to the Ravens, which has led to many questioning why he was still in the game at that point. Either way, Tampa Bay will likely be without his top two receivers for at least a month after Mike Evans went down with a hamstring injury earlier in the contest. Cade Otton has recorded more than twice as many snaps in the slot as the next closest Buc and could be the one Tampa Bay player that benefits the most statistically. Jalen McMillan would make the most sense, however, after he served in that role for the University of Washington last season and was a player that the coaching staff raved about this summer.


Injury Mike Evans expected to be sidelined for a while
Likely out through team's Week 11 bye
By: Doug Orth | Tue Oct 22, 5:00 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Mike Evans, the Bucs' other star receiver and franchise leading scorer, suffered what Bowles described as a "moderate" hamstring strain and will be sidelined "a couple weeks." He said Evans likely won't return until after the team's Week 11 bye week. Evans had entered the game with a hamstring strain, missing practices Thursday and Friday before doing some limited work Saturday and carrying no injury designation entering the game. But on a 24-yard sprint into the end zone on a go route, Evans suffered an injury to a different portion of the hamstring. He fell to the grass and immediately grabbed the back of his leg. (ESPN.com - Jenna Laine)

FFToday's Take: Just a brutal blow for the Bucks and Evans' fantasy managers. Not only does it look like Evans will not go on IR, but they can figure on not having him for at least four weeks. Along with Chris Godwin's season-ending ankle injury, the Bucs have no choice but to rely more heavily on Cade Otton, Jalen McMillan, Sterling Shepard and Trey Palmer. Otton and McMillan figure to be the most likely to benefit from that group, although the Bucs could opt to rely more heavily on the running game instead.


Injury Bucs lose Evans and Godwin in Week 7
Hamstring for Evans, Dislocated ankle for Godwin
By: Mike Krueger | Mon Oct 21, 11:35 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

FFToday's Take: We saw a number of injuries in Week 7 including two on Monday night to starting Buccaneers wide receivers. Mike Evans left early, aggravating his hamstring injury. Chris Godwin was injured with under a minute left in the game and appears to have suffered a dislocated ankle that will likely end his season. Tampa's Week 8 game against the Falcons could feature Jalen McMillan, Sterling Shepard and Trey Palmer at receiver.
