Mike Evans has been missing ever since he suffered a severe aggravation of a lingering hamstring injury. He had injured it initially in Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints, but it went a step further after catching his 100th receiving touchdown in Week 7 against the Ravens.
Todd Bowles hinted that Evans may be coming back after the Bye Week, and we got an idea of his status during the Thursday injury report.
Mike Evans injury update
On Wednesday, Evans was limited in practice but he did do some work which was a step forward. On Thursday, he was a full participant which leads everyone to believing we will see him return on Sunday against the Giants. Bowles shared that Evans was “trending” towards playing but quarterback Baker Mayfield gave the most reassuring news on his top target.
“From what I can see, good, and just [from] talking to him, he seems really positive about it. I mean, you guys know, Mike is a pro. He’s going to do everything he can to get back out there with us and fight for this team as we take it one game at a time.”
How long will Mike Evans be out?
Mike Evans is expected to play on Sunday against the New York Giants. Barring a major setback on Friday at practice, he should not miss any more time with this hamstring injury.
