Mike Evans — Questionable

After missing Sunday's game against the Falcons with the Achilles issue, Evans appears to be trending toward a return for San Francisco's next contest in Week 9 against the Raiders. Working as the Niners' big-play X receiver this season, Evans has been nearly unstoppable when healthy. Maintaining health has been his biggest issue. When on the field, Evans is a fantasy WR2 with WR1 upside.

49ers WR Evans, DE Bosa, WR Samuel out vs. Atlanta; WR Kirk may return

49ers receivers Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel Sr., and defensive end Nick Bosa are among a half dozen players who have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

11:46 PM UTCESPN ↗
InjuryRuled Out6d ago

Mike Evans — Out

This comes as no surprise after Evans was unable to practice all week following Monday night's early departure against the Commanders. The Niners have a Week 8 bye, and the team hopes Evans will be able to be ready to return following that off week. San Francisco should get Christian Kirk (calf) back from injured reserve this Sunday. He'd join Jordan Watkins and Brandin Cooks atop the depth chart this weekend.

InjuryRuled Out6d ago

Mike Evans — Out

Evans appears poised to miss every Week 7 practice after he aggravated a right Achilles injury in Monday's win against the Commanders. The 49ers may make a ruling on Evans' availability for Sunday's game in Atlanta once the team posts its final injury report of the week Friday.

InjuryQuestionable7d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans officially logged a second consecutive DNP after he made an early exit from Monday's win against the Commanders due to an aggravation of a right Achilles' injury, which head coach Kyle Shanahan has called soreness, per Wagoner. While Evans now has just one more chance to mix into drills this week, he's proved in the past that he doesn't require practice reps to be available on game days. Whether or not he has a chance to play Sunday in Atlanta will become known once the 49ers post their final Week 7 injury report Friday.

InjuryQuestionable7d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans has yet to practice since aggravating his right Achilles during Monday's win against the Commanders, which forced him out just before halftime of that contest. Coach Kyle Shanahan called the injury "soreness" afterward, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, and at the same time he said he doesn't believe the wide receiver has a long-term injury. Evans doesn't need to practice in order to make himself available on game day, but Friday's injury report will reveal if he has a chance to play Sunday in Atlanta.

InjuryQuestionable8d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

As expected, Evans didn't mix into drills just two days removed from exiting Monday's game against the Commanders early due to an Achilles injury. Afterward, coach Kyle Shanahan termed the issue right Achilles soreness, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, which isn't believed to be a long-term concern. Shanahan also expressed hope that Evans will be able to play Sunday in Atlanta, but the 49ers likely will exercise caution with the top wide receiver on the roster.

InjuryQuestionable8d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans exited late in the first half of Monday's game against the Commanders and was quickly ruled out due to an Achilles injury that initially showed up during Week 6 prep. Shanahan told Wagoner afterward that Evans is dealing with right Achilles tendinitis, and while he doesn't believe it's a long-term concern, he also is hopeful the veteran wide receiver will be able to play Sunday in Atlanta. Evans already has proven he doesn't need much, if any, on-field work in a given week to be available on game day, but this particular occasion appears to be different.

InjuryQuestionable9d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Listed as questionable heading into Monday after failing to practice all week while nursing the Achilles issue in addition to fractured ribs, Evans suited up but lasted just two quarters before aggravating the Achilles injury. He still delivered for fantasy managers with three receptions for 94 yards on five targets, but the veteran wideout's latest setback on the health front could put him in danger of missing his first game of the season. Before deciding on Evans' status for Sunday's game, the 49ers will likely continue to rest him during practices throughout the week and see how he bounces back from the Achilles tendinitis. With a bye on tap in Week 8, the 49ers may be incentivized to hold Evans out against the Falcons to ensure he's in optimal health for the second half of the season.

49ers rule out Mike Evans due to Achilles injury

Niners receiver Mike Evans was ruled out of Monday night's game vs. the Commanders because of an Achilles injury.

03:26 AM UTCESPN ↗
InjuryRuled Out9d ago

Mike Evans — Out

After previously being deemed questionable to return, Evans has now been officially ruled out for the remainder of the contest after he didn't even come out of the locker room with the team for the start of the third quarter. Prior to departing with the right Achilles injury, Evans caught three of five targets for 94 yards. At the end of a 16-yard grab in the second quarter, Evans sat on the ground and grabbed at his right Achilles, the one he's been battling soreness in for the past week and caused him to miss practice leading up to Monday night. Jordan Watkins and Brandin Cooks will be tasked with leading this injury-depleted San Francisco wideout room.

InjuryRuled Out10d ago

Mike Evans — Out

Evans limped to the locker room late in the second quarter and was grabbing at his right Achilles. He missed practice all week leading up to Monday night's game with Achilles soreness and a ribs injury, and it was apparent during the game that he wasn't close to 100 percent health. He still managed to catch three passes for 94 yards on five targets before heading to the locker room. It would be a shock if Evans returns against Washington, considering the 20-3 halftime lead and Evans' importance for the Niners moving forward this season. Jordan Watkins, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and Malik Turner could close this one out at wideout against Washington.

InjuryActive10d ago

Mike Evans — Active

Evans has been playing through strained ribs the last two games, but he wasn't able to practice during Week 6 prep due to what head coach Kyle Shanahan has termed Achilles soreness. Instead, Evans got some occasional work on the side in advance of this contest, but the lack of on-field work won't impact his ability to suit up Monday. Evans will continue to lead a 49ers receiving corps that also includes healthy members Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing, Jordan Watkins and Malik Turner.

InjuryQuestionable10d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans had already been playing through fractured and strained ribs since the 49ers' Week 3 win over the Cardinals, and he's now nursing an Achilles issue coming out of the team's Week 5 victory over the Seahawks. The two injuries kept him from practicing throughout the week, with the veteran wideout instead being limited to individual conditioning off to the side during those sessions. The 49ers saw enough from Evans to keep the door open for him to play Monday, but his status looks like it could come down to how he looks during a pregame workout. San Francisco will make a call on Evans' status one way or the other when the team releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

InjuryQuestionable12d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans worked to the side during each of the 49ers' last two practices while nursing injuries to his ribs and Achilles. That was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for MNF, and there's also a chance that Christian Kirk (calf) will be activated from injured reserve before the game, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. Deebo Samuel (hamstring) has already been ruled out, so Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing, Jordan Watkins and tight end George Kittle would all carry heaver workloads in the passing game if Evans joins Samuel on the sidelines for Week 6.

InjuryQuestionable12d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans been working to side for each of the 49ers' last two practices while recovering from rib and Achilles injuries, the latter of which is a new issue for the veteran wide receiver. The 49ers will announce injury designations following Saturday's practice, at which point Evans' status for Monday night's game against the Commanders will be more clear. Deebo Samuel (hamstring) has already been ruled out, so if Evans is also sidelined, then the 49ers' top wideouts would be Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and Jordan Watkins.

InjuryQuestionable13d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans was spotted working on the side at the start of Friday's session, but with no activity for a second day in a row, he now has just one more chance to mix into drills Saturday before the 49ers potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Monday's game against the Commanders. There's more cause for concern this week due to the 49ers adding 'Achilles' next to his name on the injury report, and head coach Kyle Shanahan has termed the new issue "soreness," according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.

InjuryQuestionable13d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

In addition to Evans' existing rib injury, the 49ers tacked on Achilles on Thursday, calling Evans a non-participant with head coach Kyle Shanahan terming it soreness, per Wagoner. It's unclear if Evans will do enough Friday to warrant an upgrade to limited, but the team's ensuing practice report will reveal as much.

InjuryQuestionable14d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans has been tending to strained ribs since a Week 3 matchup with the Cardinals, playing through it the last two contests to the tune of a 12-189-1 line on 18 targets during that stretch. Shanahan attributes Thursday's absence to not only that, but what he calls Achilles soreness, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. The mere mention of Achilles can be concerning, but in the end, the situation will be monitored to see if Evans' status for Monday's game against the Commanders is at all threatened.

InjuryQuestionable14d ago

InjuryActive18d ago

Mike Evans — Active

Evans opened the scoring with a two-yard touchdown catch, one play after a drive-extending 13-yard reception on third-and-7. He continues to work as the leader of San Francisco's banged-up passing game, which lost Deebo Samuel (hamstring) in the third quarter. George Kittle, who was playing through an illness, finished a distant second on the team with 24 receiving yards. Evans' two-point conversion extended San Francisco's lead to three points with 11:02 left in the fourth quarter, and both teams tacked on a field goal from there as the 49ers improved to 5-0 heading into a Week 6 home game against the Commanders on MNF.

InjuryActive20d ago

Mike Evans — Active

Evans practiced on a limited basis Wednesday before sitting out Thursday's session, but with him cleared of any injury tag for Week 5 it appears he was simply held out for maintenance purposes. It's unclear just how close Evans is to 100 percent, but he will be out there for his team's key Week 5 matchup with its NFC West rival.

InjuryQuestionable20d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

After being limited Wednesday and getting the day off Thursday, Evans appears as if he'll mix into his second session of the week as he guts through a rib injury that he sustained during a Week 3 win against the Cardinals. Friday's practice report will reveal if he has a game designation ahead of Sunday's road matchup with the Seahawks.

InjuryQuestionable21d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

While Evans officially downgraded from Wednesday's limited session as he tends to a lingering rib injury, he was upbeat as he talked with reporters at his locker afterward. Friday's practice report will give a sense of his odds to suit up Sunday at Seattle, but his DNP on Thursday should be taken with a grain of salt considering he doesn't need many, if any, on-field reps to be available on game days.

InjuryQuestionable22d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

With Evans managing the rib issue well enough to practice in a limited capacity after playing through it last Sunday, his status appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of the Niners' Week 5 date with the Seahawks. Evans has been dinged up seemingly all season already but has been productive through it all, catching 17 passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 24 targets.

InjuryQuestionable22d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans was able to gut through strained ribs this past Sunday against the Broncos, logging a 59 percent snap share and hauling in five of eight targets for 76 yards. He likely will endure practice restrictions for as long as he's dealing with the injury, but at this point there's no indication that his availability for a Week 5 matchup at Seattle is in question.

InjuryActive25d ago

Mike Evans — Active

Despite playing through a rib injury, Evans tied for the team lead in receptions while also setting the pace in receiving yards and targets for the 49ers on the afternoon. The veteran wideout's totals in the latter pair of categories were also new season highs, and having presumably made it through the game without setbacks, Evans has a bright fantasy outlook overall heading into a tough Week 5 road showdown against the Seahawks next Sunday.

InjuryActive25d ago

Mike Evans — Active

Evans managed just one limited practice this week after exiting the 49ers' Week 3 win over the Cardinals due to an injury that's been characterized as both fractured ribs and a rib strain, but he'll attempt to play through any discomfort this Sunday. Jay Glazer of Fox Sports noted earlier Sunday that Evans will be wearing a protective covering over his ribs, and assuming his injury doesn't worsen during the contest, the wideout will be slated to play his normal allotment of snaps.

InjuryQuestionable25d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan had labeled Evans as a game-time decision for the Week 4 contest following Friday's practice, during which the veteran wideout was a limited participant after sitting out the first two sessions of the week entirely. Though he'll likely have to play through discomfort Sunday, Evans isn't expected to face any restrictions with his playing time unless the injury worsens as the contest unfolds.

InjuryQuestionable25d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans exited in the second quarter of last Sunday's win versus the Cardinals after taking a big hit from Arizona safety Budda Baker and wasn't able to return. Evans then managed just one limited practice Friday before being listed as questionable for Week 4 action. Head coach Kyle Shanahan told Vic Tafur of The Athletic at the end of the week that Evans was lining up to be a game-time decision, and a pregame workout ultimately may determine his availability ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

InjuryReport27d ago

49ers WR Mike Evans a game-time decision with rib injury

Niners wide receiver Mike Evans is questionable for Sunday, but he said he will give "my best" to play against the Broncos as he deals with a rib injury.

12:52 AM UTCESPN ↗
InjuryQuestionable27d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Officially, Evans is listed as questionable for Week 4 after failing to practice Wednesday and Thursday, per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. Evans is nursing a strained rib, and with a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff incoming Sunday, there will be fewer options to pivot to for fantasy purposes if he ends up inactive. Currently, Deebo Samuel, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and Jordan Watkins are the healthy wide receivers on the 49ers' active roster.

InjuryQuestionable27d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans came out of this past Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a strained rib, which didn't allow him to practice Wednesday or Thursday. It's unclear if he'll mix into drills Friday, but considering he has his helmet, a limited session, at least, seems possible. The 49ers' final Week 4 injury report will reveal Evans' odds to suit up Sunday versus the Broncos.

InjuryQuestionable28d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans thus will have just one more chance to mix into drills Friday before the 49ers potentially make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos. If Evans ends up being inhibited or sidelined this weekend, Deebo Samuel and Brandin Cooks represent the notable names that remain healthy in San Francisco's WR corps.

InjuryQuestionable28d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans made an early exit from the 49ers' Week 3 win against the Cardinals due to a strained rib, which held him out of drills Wednesday and is threatening to do so one day later. Thursday's practice report will reveal if he was able to mix into any drills at all.

InjuryQuestionable29d ago

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans was laboring after taking a big hit from Cardinals safety Budda Baker in the second quarter of this past Sunday's win against Arizona, eventually being ruled out due to a rib injury. Afterward, Evans was diagnosed with a strained rib, but Shanahan also relayed to Vic Tafur of The Athletic on Wednesday that the wide receiver "may" practice later this week. Logging some on-field work Thursday and/or Friday seemingly will give Evans a chance to play Week 4 against the Broncos, but his upcoming availability remains up in the air.

Evans practiced on a limited basis Wednesday before sitting out Thursday's session, but with him cleared of any injury tag for Week 5 it appears he was simply held out for maintenance purposes. It's unclear just how close Evans is to 100 percent, but he will be out there for his team's key Week 5 matchup with its NFC West rival.

Mike Evans — Questionable

After being limited Wednesday and getting the day off Thursday, Evans appears as if he'll mix into his second session of the week as he guts through a rib injury that he sustained during a Week 3 win against the Cardinals. Friday's practice report will reveal if he has a game designation ahead of Sunday's road matchup with the Seahawks.

Mike Evans — Questionable

While Evans officially downgraded from Wednesday's limited session as he tends to a lingering rib injury, he was upbeat as he talked with reporters at his locker afterward. Friday's practice report will give a sense of his odds to suit up Sunday at Seattle, but his DNP on Thursday should be taken with a grain of salt considering he doesn't need many, if any, on-field reps to be available on game days.

Mike Evans — Questionable

With Evans managing the rib issue well enough to practice in a limited capacity after playing through it last Sunday, his status appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of the Niners' Week 5 date with the Seahawks. Evans has been dinged up seemingly all season already but has been productive through it all, catching 17 passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns on 24 targets.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans was able to gut through strained ribs this past Sunday against the Broncos, logging a 59 percent snap share and hauling in five of eight targets for 76 yards. He likely will endure practice restrictions for as long as he's dealing with the injury, but at this point there's no indication that his availability for a Week 5 matchup at Seattle is in question.

Mike Evans — Active

Despite playing through a rib injury, Evans tied for the team lead in receptions while also setting the pace in receiving yards and targets for the 49ers on the afternoon. The veteran wideout's totals in the latter pair of categories were also new season highs, and having presumably made it through the game without setbacks, Evans has a bright fantasy outlook overall heading into a tough Week 5 road showdown against the Seahawks next Sunday.

Mike Evans — Active

Evans managed just one limited practice this week after exiting the 49ers' Week 3 win over the Cardinals due to an injury that's been characterized as both fractured ribs and a rib strain, but he'll attempt to play through any discomfort this Sunday. Jay Glazer of Fox Sports noted earlier Sunday that Evans will be wearing a protective covering over his ribs, and assuming his injury doesn't worsen during the contest, the wideout will be slated to play his normal allotment of snaps.

Mike Evans — Questionable

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan had labeled Evans as a game-time decision for the Week 4 contest following Friday's practice, during which the veteran wideout was a limited participant after sitting out the first two sessions of the week entirely. Though he'll likely have to play through discomfort Sunday, Evans isn't expected to face any restrictions with his playing time unless the injury worsens as the contest unfolds.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans exited in the second quarter of last Sunday's win versus the Cardinals after taking a big hit from Arizona safety Budda Baker and wasn't able to return. Evans then managed just one limited practice Friday before being listed as questionable for Week 4 action. Head coach Kyle Shanahan told Vic Tafur of The Athletic at the end of the week that Evans was lining up to be a game-time decision, and a pregame workout ultimately may determine his availability ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

49ers WR Mike Evans a game-time decision with rib injury

Niners wide receiver Mike Evans is questionable for Sunday, but he said he will give "my best" to play against the Broncos as he deals with a rib injury.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Officially, Evans is listed as questionable for Week 4 after failing to practice Wednesday and Thursday, per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. Evans is nursing a strained rib, and with a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff incoming Sunday, there will be fewer options to pivot to for fantasy purposes if he ends up inactive. Currently, Deebo Samuel, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and Jordan Watkins are the healthy wide receivers on the 49ers' active roster.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans came out of this past Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a strained rib, which didn't allow him to practice Wednesday or Thursday. It's unclear if he'll mix into drills Friday, but considering he has his helmet, a limited session, at least, seems possible. The 49ers' final Week 4 injury report will reveal Evans' odds to suit up Sunday versus the Broncos.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans thus will have just one more chance to mix into drills Friday before the 49ers potentially make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos. If Evans ends up being inhibited or sidelined this weekend, Deebo Samuel and Brandin Cooks represent the notable names that remain healthy in San Francisco's WR corps.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans made an early exit from the 49ers' Week 3 win against the Cardinals due to a strained rib, which held him out of drills Wednesday and is threatening to do so one day later. Thursday's practice report will reveal if he was able to mix into any drills at all.

Mike Evans — Questionable

Evans was laboring after taking a big hit from Cardinals safety Budda Baker in the second quarter of this past Sunday's win against Arizona, eventually being ruled out due to a rib injury. Afterward, Evans was diagnosed with a strained rib, but Shanahan also relayed to Vic Tafur of The Athletic on Wednesday that the wide receiver "may" practice later this week. Logging some on-field work Thursday and/or Friday seemingly will give Evans a chance to play Week 4 against the Broncos, but his upcoming availability remains up in the air.
