2024 Player Outlook
There were some concerns that Mike Evans would take a step back in 2023. That age might catch up to him or that Baker Mayfield would favor Chris Godwin underneath. Instead he tied his career high for touchdown totals, kept his 1,000+ yard streak alive, and finished as the WR7 in PPR. The Bucs decided to get the band back together with Mayfield, Evans, and Godwin as the man pieces, extending Evans to a massive two year, $52 million extension. So Evans should once again be a decent bet for 1,000+ yards which is all you can really ask for in fantasy football.
Player News
Mike Evans caught all seven of his targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Bucs’ Wild Card loss to the Commanders.
It was a highly anticipated matchup between Mike Evans and Marshon Lattimore, but Evans thoroughly trounced his foe in this one. It just wasn’t enough to get the Bucs the win. The veteran ends another impressive season with 1,004 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on 74 catches (110 targets) despite playing just 14 games in the regular season. He had 15 plays over 20 yards and tied Jerry Rice with 11 consecutive seasons with at least 1,000 receiving yards. He’ll be 32 years old next season and looking to make it 12 years in a row. At this point, it’s hard to doubt him, which makes Evans a high-end WR2 for 2025.
Mike Evans caught 8-of-13 targets for 80 yards in the Buccaneers’ Week 18 win over the Saints.
Mike Evans caught 8-of-9 targets for 97 yards and two touchdowns in the Bucs’ Week 17 win over the Panthers.
Evans operated as the de facto goal line back for Tampa Bay, scoring his touchdowns from one and two yards out. When he wasn’t scoring easy touchdowns, Evans was busy gashing the Panthers for big gains. The veteran wideout caught three passes of 15+ yards. Evans is now 85 yards shy of his 11th consecutive 1,000-yard season. With Tampa Bay playing for a postseason spot in Week 18, Evans is a good bet to get there in the final game of the regular season.
Mike Evans caught 5-of-8 targets for 69 yards in the Buccaneers’ Week 16 loss to the Cowboys.
Evans was cooking in the first half, catching four passes for 59 yards before the break. He would then catch only one pass for 10 additional yards over the final two quarters, knocking him off pace for his 11th consecutive 1,000-yard season. The veteran wide receiver now needs to average 91 yards in each of the team’s final two contests to extend his NFL record, with games against the Panthers and Saints left on the schedule.
