Buccaneers Looking For Ways To Get Mike Evans More Involved

11 months ago

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales said the team is looking for ways to get future Hall of Fame wide receiver Mike Evans involved in the offense heading into their wild-card playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. Canales touched on how opposing defenses often double- and triple-team Evans, so the team has to get creative in finding ways to get the football into the 30-year-old's hands. Since a two-touchdown performance in Week 16, Evans was quiet in the final two weeks of the regular season with six catches for 92 yards. The good news is the Bucs and Evans are in a great bounce-back spot while facing an Eagles defense that allowed the most half-PPR fantasy points per game (36.6) to opposing receivers in 2023. Expect Tampa to do everything in their power to get Evans involved as much as possible on Monday evening.
