Mike Evans Fantasy Stats

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs, Achilles) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Monday's Week 6 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Evans has been working on the side during each of the last two practices while nursing ribs and Achilles injuries. According to Larry Krueger, Evans looks like he's on the wrong side of questionable heading into Monday's game. The 49ers should give another update on his status soon. If Evans is unable to play, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing, and Jordan Watkins would be the starting wideouts for Monday's game. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for more updates ahead of Monday's game.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans fought through a rib injury to snag seven receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in Week 5. Evans logged three straight DNPs ahead of the 49ers' Week 6 matchup with the Washington Commanders, though he was able to work out on the side. Not only was Evans still bothered by the rib ailment, but he is also battling Achilles soreness. If Evans can tough out the injuries again, he could have another big week. The Washington Commanders have given up the fourth most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2026, and have given up at least 120 yards and a touchdown to a wide receiver in three of their first five games. Evans projects as a WR2, but if a late decision comes for Evans to sit, fantasy managers have a grab bag of receivers to pivot to on Monday night that includes Jacob Cowing (ankle), Brandin Cooks, and Jordan Watkins.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs, Achilles) was listed as a non-participant for the second straight day on Friday, according to Harrison Rich of The San Francisco Chronicle. Evans is trending towards being at least questionable for Monday night's contest at home against the Washington Commanders, even if he returns to the practice field for the final session of the week on Saturday. The 33-year-old has been playing through a painful rib injury and is also now dealing with soreness in his Achilles. The 49ers cannot afford to have their best pass-catcher join the list of wideouts on Injured Reserve this year, which is why he has not been practicing much during the week. If Evans returns to practice on Saturday, he could have a good chance of playing in Week 6. The future Hall of Fame receiver will have an even higher target share if he is active on Monday night, with Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) expected to miss time with a hamstring injury he suffered in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. Despite battling nagging injuries in his first year in San Fran, Evans has secured 24 of his 34 targets for 326 yards and three touchdowns and has continued to be a must-start WR2 in fantasy.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that wide receiver Mike Evans (Achilles, ribs) will not practice on Thursday due to Achilles soreness, per ESPN's Nick Wagoner. Evans has also been playing through a rib issue. The 33-year-old has been highly productive so far in 2026, recording 24 catches for 326 yards and three touchdowns on 34 targets across five games. However, Evans is now battling multiple ailments that could put his availability for San Francisco's Week 6 matchup against the Washington Commanders on Monday Night Football in question. The 49ers lost WR2 Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) to a hamstring injury in Week 5, so the team could be without its top two wideouts in Week 6. If Evans is inactive, 49ers wide receivers Jacob Cowing, Brandin Cooks, and Jordan Watkins could all see increased workloads.

San Francisco 49ers veteran wide receiver Mike Evans seems to be the last man standing in the team's banged-up receiving corps, although the 33-year-old has not been immune to injuries himself. Battling through a painful rib injury over the last couple of weeks, Evans had his best game with the 49ers in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, catching seven of his 10 targets for 113 yards and a touchdown. The future Hall of Famer also caught a successful two-point conversion in the big divisional victory. Through his first five games in San Francisco in 2026, Evans ranks as the WR24 in half-PPR leagues with 24 catches on 34 targets for 326 yards and three touchdowns. Injuries and durability could be an issue for the aging veteran down the stretch, but with the team's WR ranks decimated by injuries, Evans should continue to have a relatively high fantasy floor. He will have WR1 upside going into a Monday night matchup in Week 6 against a Washington Commanders defense that has allowed the fourth-most passing yards per game (255).

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) helped lift his team to a 32-29 win over the rival Seattle Seahawks. In a vintage performance, the 33-year-old Evans recorded season highs in receptions (seven) and receiving yards (113), while scoring a touchdown. Evans led the 49ers in all receiving categories. Evans is dealing with an injury to his ribs and did not practice on Thursday, while logging two limited sessions during the week. He was able to play 38 snaps against the Seahawks and was not slowed down by his injury in any way. Evans leads the 49ers in receptions with 24 and receiving yards with 326 in 2026. He has also scored three touchdowns. Evans continues to be a must-start player in a San Francisco wide receiver room that is dealing with multiple injuries.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) sandwiched a DNP between two limited practice sessions this week, and yet he does not appear on the Week 5 injury report. Evans suffered an injury to his ribs in Week 3 that forced him to leave that game early, but he was still heavily involved in last week's win over the Broncos. Ahead of that game, Evans was deemed a game-time decision but went on to catch five passes and led the team with 76 receiving yards and eight targets. In Week 5, he will be facing a Seahawks secondary that has given up the fewest receiving yards (395) and third-fewest receptions (36) to opposing wide receivers so far in 2026. Evans is already an integral part of the 49ers' passing attack, but he is still hurt and playing against a defense that will be hard to exploit. He can be plugged into fantasy lineups for Week 5 with an expected WR2 ceiling.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran wideout continues to battle through a rib injury that he suffered during the Week 3 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was limited during Wednesday's practice session before sitting out on Thursday. He returned to practice on Friday and will suit up for this important divisional matchup on Sunday. It doesn't sound like Evans is back to 100 percent yet, but that didn't stop him from making an impact last week. He recorded five receptions for 76 yards in the win over the Denver Broncos. He should remain a key factor in their offensive gameplan.

San Francisco 49ers veteran wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) did not practice on Thursday and only ran on a side field, but he was upbeat at his locker when talking to reporters, and the Bay Area Sports Group's Cam Inman expects Evans to play on Sunday in Seattle against the division-rival Seahawks. Evans suffered a painful rib injury in the Week 3 win over the division-rival Arizona Cardinals last week, but he managed to play in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Denver Broncos and caught five of a season-high eight targets for a season-high 76 yards. The 33-year-old future Hall of Famer was downgraded this week after being limited in practice on Wednesday, but the former first-rounder appears to be on the right side of questionable for Week 5. The six-time Pro Bowler may not be 100% healthy all year, but he is one of the tougher receivers in the game and will continue to be quarterback Brock Purdy's top option in the passing game if he is active. The risk of an in-game setback on Sunday is real for Evans, but if he is active this weekend, he should be a low-end WR2 for fantasy football lineups.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday, according to Cam Inman of the Bay Area News Group. Evans suffered a painful rib injury in the Week 3 win over the division-rival Arizona Cardinals, but he managed to suit up for this past Sunday's win over the visiting Denver Broncos. The 33-year-old future Hall of Famer caught five of a season-high eight targets for a season-high 76 yards in the victory over Denver. Evans could be on the injury report for much of the 2026 season, but so far, he has managed to play in all of the team's four games and has 17 catches on 24 targets for 213 yards and two touchdowns to begin his first year in the Bay Area. He is San Francisco's clear WR1 target for quarterback Brock Purdy in an extremely banged-up receiver room. The weekly volume is propping up Evans' otherwise fading fantasy value because of the mounting injuries near the end of his career. If he does not suffer a setback this week, he should play on Sunday against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, where he will be a low-end WR2/high-end WR3/flex.
