Bills' Darrynton Evans: Dealing with hamstring issue
Evans is tending to a hamstring injury, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.
Evans presumably picked up the issue during a training camp practice, and now his availability for Sunday's preseason contest at Chicago is in question. If he can't play in that game, it could mean more snaps for Frank Gore.

Bills' Darrynton Evans: Lands opportunity in Buffalo
Evans is slated to sign with the Bills, per his representation at Priority Sports.
Evans appeared in five games with Chicago last season while also spending time on the team's practice squad. Across those five appearances, he rushed three times for three yards and played on special teams. Now, the 2020 third-round pick will get a chance to compete for a reserve role in Buffalo.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Signs with Bears off practice squad
Evans signed with Chicago's active roster off the practice squad Saturday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Evans is likely to work as Chicago's third-string running back behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson on Sunday against the Lions, as Travis Homer (hamstring) is listed as doubtful. A roster spot for Evans opened up when the Bears placed guard Ryan Bates on injured reserve.

Darrynton Evans: Reverts to practice squad
Evans reverted to Chicago's practice squad on Wednesday. per the NFL's official transactions report.
The Bears elevated Evans for Monday night's loss to the Vikings, but he was ultimately only called upon to handle seven snaps on special-teams. If Roschon Johnson (concussion) is again unable to suit up Sunday versus Detroit, Evans will be a candidate to be elevated as a depth option behind D'Andre Swift again.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Elevated ahead of MNF
The Bears elevated Evans from the practice squad ahead of Monday night's game against the Vikings, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
With Roschon Johnson (concussion) out and D'Andre Swift (groin) coming into Monday night hobbled, the Bears need some extra backfield depth. Evans carried the ball three times for three yards last week against San Francisco.

Darrynton Evans: Returns to practice squad
Evans reverted to the Bears' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Evans was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 38-13 loss to the 49ers, turning three carries into three yards while playing three offensive snaps. The running back could be asked to join the Bears' roster again in Week 15 versus the Vikings on Monday Night Football with Travis Homer (head) and Roschon Johnson (concussion) potentially unavailable.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Limited role in defeat
Evans had three rushes for three yards in the Bears' 38-13 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.
Evans was activated to the active roster with Roschon Johnson (concussion) sitting this game out. Despite functioning as the No. 3 running back, Travis Homer suffered a head injury, resulting in Evans seeing more action than anticipated. If Chicago continues to deal with running back injuries, Evans could be elevated from the practice squad during the fantasy playoffs.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Elevated to active roster
The Bears elevated Evans from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Evans joined the Bears' practice squad Nov. 6 after being let go from the Bills' injured reserve Oct. 29 due to a hamstring injury he suffered in late August. Evans will be on the Bears' active roster for Sunday's game against the 49ers, and he could see some snaps on offense due to Roschon Johnson (concussion) being ruled out. If D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) is also unable to play, Evans would serve as the Bears' No. 2 running back behind Travis Homer.

Darrynton Evans: Elevation candidate with RBs hurt
Evans is a candidate to be elevated from Chicago's practice squad prior to Sunday's game against the 49ers, as D'Andre Swift (quad) is listed as questionable while Roschon Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out.
The Bears also have Travis Homer on the roster, but Homer has been deployed mostly in a pass-catching capacity throughout his career, so Evans could see some run on early downs, especially if Swift is limited or unavailable. Swift was a limited participant in practice Friday after sitting out both Wednesday and Thursday. Evans dressed for 19 regular-season games spanning 2020-2023, with 11 of those appearances coming with the Bears.

Darrynton Evans: Headed to Chicago
The Bears signed Evans to their practice squad Wednesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Evans was dropped by the Bills on Oct. 29, but he's already found a new home in Chicago. The Appalachian State product's most recent in-game action came in 2023 with the Dolphins, when he appeared in two contests and recorded 16 rushing yards on two carries. He could be elevated to Chicago's active roster at some point this season, especially after Khalil Herbert was traded to the Bengals on Tuesday.

Darrynton Evans: Let go by Buffalo
The Bills released Evans (hamstring) from IR on Tuesday.
Evans started the regular season on injured reserve after injuring his hamstring during the Bills' preseason finale against the Panthers in late August. His 21-day practice window to return from IR opened Oct. 9, but the Bills don't have room for Evans to join the active roster alongside fellow running backs James Cook, Ray Davis and Ty Johnson. Frank Gore is the lone running back on the Bills' practice squad, so while Evans could stick around in Buffalo, once he's healthy he'll have the option to explore his opportunities elsewhere and catch on with a team in need of depth at running back.

Bills' Darrynton Evans: Not in Week 8 mix
Evans (hamstring) wasn't activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Evans, whose 21-day practice window opened Oct. 9, will thus target a potential return to action in Week 9. In his continued absence, James Cook, Ray Davis and Ty Johnson are available to handle the Bills' running back duties versus Seattle.

Bills' Darrynton Evans: Doubtful for Week 8
Evans (hamstring) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks.
The Appalachian State product must still be activated to the Bills' active roster in order to suit up Sunday. Despite back-to-back weeks without practice limitations, Evans is expected to miss his eighth consecutive game due to a hamstring injury. However, if he is activated ahead of Sunday's contest, he'll likely serve as the team's fourth-string running back behind Ty Johnson, Ray Davis and James Cook.

Bills' Darrynton Evans: Remains on IR for Week 7
Evans (hamstring) was not activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.
Evans will miss his seventh consecutive game to open the season after he was injured in late August. The Bills will continue to roll with James Cook, Ray Davis (calf) and Ty Johnson in the backfield for another week. Evans is unlikely to have a substantial role once he's activated. His 21-day practice window was opened 10 days ago.
