Mike Evans Fantasy

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers restructured the contract of wide receiver Mike Evans on Thursday. His $14 million base salary for 2022 was converted to a bonus as Tampa Bay looks to sign more free agents. According to Greg Auman of The Athletic, the star wideout has done this several times on his current deal. Evans was fantastic in 2021, hauling in 74 passes on 113 targets for 1,035 yards and 14 touchdowns over 16 games in 2021. The 28-year-old averaged 13.2 yards after the catch (22 position rank) and owned 17% of the team's target share (52 position rank). With the GOAT Tom Brady coming out of retirement and returning to Tampa Bay for the 2022 season, Evans is a surefire WR1 and is expected to be one of the top-10 receivers off the board in fantasy drafts.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans caught 9-of-16 targets for 119 yards and one touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams. In this raging comeback attempt with absurd passing volume, Evans sometimes looked like the only aspect of the Buccaneers offense that was working. In 2022, with Antonio Brown gone, Chris Godwin starting the season injured and possibly being on another team, and Rob Gronkowski aging, Evans may find himself in an unfamiliar position in 2022 with fairly minimal competition. Regardless of what this offense looks like, as long as he has Tom Brady as his quarterback, Evans should be drafted in the first three rounds. Albeit in different ways, whether or not he has competition, Evans will succeed in fantasy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans finished with nine catches for 117 yards during the win over the Eagles on Sunday. He also had a touchdown, finding the end zone off of a 36-yard toss from Tom Brady in the third quarter. The 28-year-old veteran continued to battle a hamstring issue entering this one. However, it didn't seem to impact his performance as Brady looked in his direction often. Nonetheless, Evans could cool off if Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and Cyril Grayson (hamstring) can return for the Divisional round. However, Evans should still continue to get his fair share of targets moving ahead, although potentially not as many.
