Evans was released by the Vikings on Thursday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans was signed by the Vikings on July 24 after spending the first four seasons of his career with the Rams, but he has since been released. The 2019 third-round pick appeared in 35 games (12 starts) for Los Angeles throughout his career.

Evans signed with the Vikings on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Selected in the third round at 97th overall in the 2019 Draft by the Rams, Evans appeared in 35 games for Los Angeles, making a dozen starts. He can play guard or tackle and obviously knows the offense after playing for Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell when the two were in L.A. together. Evans will compete for one of Minnesota's final roster spots.

Evans was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans should be able to suit up Tuesday against Seattle in a game that was pushed back due to the volume of names in COVID protocols. With both of the Rams' starting guards healthy and available, Evans is expected to play a reserve role.

Evans (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans was one of five Rams players to land in protocols Thursday. With Jamil Demby (undisclosed) on injured reserve and Evans potentially sidelined due to protocols, Austin Corbett and David Edwards are currently the only available options at offensive guard.

Evans was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans missed the last two games but will return to the lineup for the season finale against Arizona. He'll serve as the primary backup tackle behind starters Joe Noteboom and Rob Havenstein.

Evans (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans either tested positive for the virus or is a high-risk close contact of an infected individual, and he won't be available for Sunday's game against the Jets. The 23-year-old has played only 18 snaps between offense and special teams in 2020.

Evans (shoulder) practiced in full Thursday, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The second-year man was forced to miss his first game of 2020 in Week 5, sitting out against Washington after fielding a combined 17 special-teams snaps over the Rams' first four outings of the season. Evans hasn't been deployed as a component to the offensive line this year after starting seven times in 2019, but he's on a trajectory to be activated for Los Angeles' Week 6 showdown with San Francisco.

Evans (shoulder) will not play in Sunday's game against Washington, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans was unable to practice all week, rendering this decision relatively unsurprising. The 2019 third-round pick is primarily a depth tackle when healthy. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 6 versus the 49ers.
