Evans registered a career-low five tackles across as many games before finishing the 2021 campaign on Cincinnati's injured reserve list due to a knee injury. The former Bengal played at least 14 games in each of his first four NFL seasons with the team, and he could provide depth at linebacker for the team once more.

The Bengals activated Evans from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesady, Geoff Hobson of the team's official site reports.
