Chris Evans Fantasy

Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chris Evans (hamstring) and wide receiver Auden Tate (thigh) were both limited in practice all week and are questionable for Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns. Evans missed the Week 8 loss to the New York Jets, but he's trending in the right direction to make his return and serve as the No. 3 back behind Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine. Evans is off the fantasy radar in redraft leagues as long as Mixon and Perine are both healthy. He has just four carries for 18 yards and has caught all eight of his targets for 104 yards and a touchdown in seven games. Tate also missed last week but is on track to return. Like Evans, he just isn't fantasy relevant in Cincy's crowded receiver's room. The 24-year-old has only three receptions for 39 yards and a touchdown on the season.

Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chris Evans (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 8 against the New York Jets. Wide receiver Auden Tate (thigh) is also questionable. The sixth-round rookie will miss his first game of the season after missing practice all week. Evans saw his biggest role in Week 6 with Samaje Perine on the COVID-19 list, carrying the ball four times for 18 yards and a touchdown and also catching all three of his targets for 49 yards and another score against the Detroit Lions. Those four carries are his only rushing attempts of the season, and he's caught five more passes in his other six games. Perine will continue to serve as Joe Mixon's backup in Week 8 against the Jets.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans got some additional attention during the win over the Lions on Sunday. With Samaje Perine out of the equation while adhering to the league's policy surrounding COVID-19, Evans came in handy for fantasy managers in deeper formats, finishing with 18 yards off four carries. He also caught three passes for 44 yards, one of which resulted in a touchdown. However, the rookie's value is somewhat limited moving ahead, primarily once Perine returns and Joe Mixon is healthy.
