Chris Evans News
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans (hamstring) sat out of practice on Thursday after he was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday. The Athletic's Paul Dehner Jr. writes that it's not a great sign for Evans' chances of playing in Week 2 versus the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. The third-year running back has opened the 2023 season as Joe Mixon's primary backup, but he had only two carries for 12 yards and caught one pass for a loss of one yard in the Week 1 loss to the Cleveland Browns. If Evans is forced to sit out the Week 2 contest, Trayveon Williams will take on a bigger role as the backup, with rookie Chase Brown likely making his NFL debut after he was a healthy scratch in the season opener.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans (hamstring) was limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. Evans' hamstring appeared to be fine in the Bengals' loss on Sunday, as he tallied three touches for 11 yards on offense and returned two kicks for 45 yards on special teams. The running back dealt with an undisclosed injury this preseason, but there's no telling if that is related to this hamstring issue. It's only Wednesday, and a limited practice this early in the week is a great sign for his availability in Week 2. He only saw seven offensive snaps in Week 1, so he doesn't have much fantasy relevancy if he does suit up.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans (undisclosed) was able to take part in practice on Monday ahead of this Sunday's Week 1 meeting with the Cleveland Browns. Evans didn't play in the team's preseason finale as a precaution, but he should be active this weekend to kick of the 2023 regular season. The 25-year-old former sixth-rounder in 2021 will serve in a complementary role behind starter Joe Mixon to kick off the year, but he'll be battling for touches with rookie Chase Brown and Trayveon Williams. Evans has a shot to be the team's primary third-down back, which makes him worth stashing in deep PPR formats. However, we wouldn't say he'll have standalone value in those formats in Week 1 against the Browns.
