    49ers' Mike Evans: Remains sidelined

    Mike Evans (quadriceps) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.The same can be said for fellow wide receivers Christian Kirk (calf), De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) and Jacob Cowing (hip). When Evans initially sat out Monday's session, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that the 13-year pro was dealing with a minor quad strain, and the San Francisco 49ers were slated to ease him back in until he's fully healthy.

    49ers' Mike Evans: Minor quad strain

    Mike Evans, who didn't practice Monday, is tending to a minor quad strain, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.In a San Francisco receiving corps that already has lost Ricky Pearsall (knee, IR) for the season, Evans joined Christian Kirk (calf) and rookie second-rounder De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) on the sideline during Monday's session. Rapoport suggested the San Francisco 49ers will give Evans a lighter workload until he's back to 100 percent, but in the meantime, Deebo Samuel will serve as the team's top available option at the position, while Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Watkins and Jacob Cowing should see more first-team reps.

    49ers' Mike Evans: Not practicing, but catches passes

    Mike Evans (quadriceps) didn't don a uniform at Monday's practice, but he did make some stationary over-the-shoulder catches during special-teams drills, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.Evans is the latest San Francisco 49ers wide receiver to miss practice due to injury, with Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reporting the 13-year pro is dealing with a strained quad. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) on injured reserve and out for the season and Christian Kirk (calf) and rookie second-round De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) also tending to health concerns, Deebo Samuel is the clear-cut top available player at the position for San Francisco, while Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Watkins and Jacob Cowing are next up for reps.

    49ers' Mike Evans: Has strained quad

    Mike Evans (quad) won't practice Monday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.With Evans now dealing with a quad strain, the San Francisco 49ers are banged up at wideout at the moment. On top of Ricky Pearsall's (knee) placement on IR, Christian Kirk is dealing with a calf injury, while De'Zhaun Stribling is managing hamstring tightness. For now, consider Evans day-to-day ahead of the team's Aug. 13 preseason opener against the Titans.

    49ers' Mike Evans: Winning over teammates and coaches

    Mike Evans is making a strong impression at voluntary OTAs and feels rejuvenated after an injury-plagued 2025, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports."I pinch myself every day," said teammate George Kittle, who then told reporters that Evans caught "three to five" TDs in a red-zone period. Dominance in unpadded practices doesn't mean much, especially for a player who already has such a strong track record, but it's a good sign that Evans is fitting in with the San Francisco 49ers and earning praise from fellow future Hall of Famers like Kittle and LT Trent Williams. The 32-year-old wideout seems to have been a full participant throughout the voluntary offseason program, acclimating quickly to Kyle Shanahan's offense.

    49ers' Mike Evans: Joining forces with Kyle Shanahan

    Mike Evans is in line to sign a three-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Evans' agent released a statement Monday confirming that the wideout will leave Tampa Bay after 12 seasons. He showed some signs of decline in 2025 and now will turn 33 before Week 1 of 2026, but it's hard to think of a better location for Evans to regain fantasy value -- especially if fellow free agent Jauan Jennings doesn't return to San Francisco. The 49ers have a breakout candidate in Ricky Pearsall, but there's not much else of note in the WR room unless Jennings re-signs (which isn't likely at this point).

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: May not return to Tampa Bay

    Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports that Mike Evans will explore his options in free agency and may not return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the 2026 season.Evans was selected by the Buccaneers in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He has spent his entire professional career in Tampa Bay, where he posted 11 consecutive seasons of 1,000-plus receiving yards, earned six Pro Bowl selections and played a key role in the Buccaneers' Super Bowl LV run in 2020. Evans was limited to just eight regular-season games in 2025 due to a hamstring injury and broken collarbone. While he turns 33 before the start of the 2026 season, Evans will garner interest from several teams looking for a significant upgrade to their wide receiver corps.

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Will play in 2026

    Mike Evans will continue his playing career in 2026, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.Evans will turn 33 years old in August but will play a 13th NFL season. He was limited to a career-low eight regular-season contests in 2025 as he dealt with hamstring and collarbone injuries in addition to a concussion. When on the field, Evans was still productive, securing 30 of 62 targets for 368 yards and three touchdowns. The six-time Pro Bowler should have plenty of interest around the league if he decides to test free agency, but a return to Tampa Bay -- the only team he's ever played for in the NFL -- is the most likely outcome.

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Not expected to retire

    Mike Evans isn't likely to retire this offseason, according to ESPN's Jenna Laine.Laine notes that fellow Bucs legend Lavonte David said he'll either re-sign with the team or retire, whereas Evans is considered more likely to continue his NFL career. The implication seems to be that Evans is willing to play for another team if he can't reach terms with Tampa Bay before hitting free agency in March. He'll turn 33 in August after finishing 2025 with career lows in numerous categories, including games played (eight), catch rate (48.4 percent) and yards per game (48.4).

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Pair of grabs in Week 18 win

    Mike Evans brought in both targets for 34 yards in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 16-14 win over the Panthers on Saturday.Evans contributed 21- and 13-yard gains on his pair of catches, but the Panthers did a good job overall on limiting receiver production, which opened up plenty of opportunity for tight end Cade Otton. It was a quiet finish to an injury-shortened season for Evans, who appeared in a career-low eight games and posted a 30-368-3 line on 62 targets. The talented veteran will look to continue his season in next weekend's wild-card round, which will be made possible if the Saints tie or defeat the Falcons on Sunday.
