Mike Evans 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.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) practiced in full the last two days and doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's wild-card tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles. Antonio Brown is no longer on the team, Chris Godwin (knee) is out for the rest of the year and Cyril Grayson (hamstring) won't play on Sunday, so Evans should be the most targeted pass-catcher for this wild-card game. The 28-year-old has been a scoring machine this year, totaling a career-high 14 scores on 114 targets, which makes him a top-five fantasy asset this weekend. The three-time Pro Bowler should have a solid floor, but he'll be facing a tough Eagles secondary and may need to find the end zone to justify his $7,000 DraftKings salary.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) put in a full practice session on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday. Evans should be fine to play in Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He should be heavily targeted by quarterback Tom Brady with Antonio Brown no longer around, Chris Godwin (knee) done for the year and Cyril Grayson (hamstring) not expected to play, but the Eagles defense allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to WRs this year and held Evans to just two catches for 27 yards back in Week 6. Evans' career-high 14 TDs and the fact that he's Brady's go-to target in the red zone help justify him as a top-five fantasy wideout in the wild-card round, but if Evans doesn't score, he'll be a bust at his $7,000 price tag at DraftKings (fifth-highest at his position).
