Evans (knee) practiced fully Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Buccaneers capped Evans' practice reps last week, as they would have done if the team had been facing a normal turnaround for a game. Now that he's gotten some maintenance time, Evans shouldn't face any limitations in the Buccaneers' remaining practices leading up to Sunday's Super Bowl LV matchup with the Chiefs. Meanwhile, Antonio Brown (knee) got back on the practice field in a limited capacity Wednesday, helping Tampa Bay inch closer to full capacity in its receiving corps.

Evans (knee) remained limited Friday at practice.
EDGE Analysis
Although he wasn't a full participant, the Bucs estimate that Evans wouldn't have any injury designation if they had a game to play this Sunday. He should be fine with another week to prepare for the Super Bowl, gearing up to face a solid KC secondary.

Evans (knee) was limited at Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Since picking up a knee injury Week 17, Evans' has had his practice reps capped, but he's still produced, per usual. Through three postseason games, Evans has compiled a 10-173-2 line on 21 targets. The Buccaneers are in the midst of their first of two weeks of preparation for Super Bowl LV, so there's little reason to believe Evans' status against the Chiefs is in question.

Evans (knee) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate.
EDGE Analysis
Evans has been managing a knee injury since Week 17, but he still suited up for all three of the Buccaneers' playoff games. During that stretch, he hauled in 10 of 21 targets for 173 yards and two touchdowns. Elsewhere in the receiving corps, Antonio Brown wouldn't have practiced if the team held a session, which is expected to continue this week. Tampa Bay has two weeks to get healthy for Super Bowl LV against the Chiefs, and if Brown is sidelined, like he was in the NFC Championship Game, Evans could be in line for a few more looks.

Evans secured three of eight targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 31-26 win over the Packers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game.
EDGE Analysis
Evans was far from efficient and saw a ball bounce off his outstretched hands in the fourth quarter, resulting in Tom Brady's second interception of the afternoon. However, the multi-time Pro Bowler did contribute a 16-yard scoring grab that opened the Buccaneers' scoring on the day, his second touchdown in as many postseason games. He'lll look to make it a hat trick in that department during a Super Bowl LV matchup versus either the Bills or Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, Feb. 7.

Evans (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans injured his knee Week 17 but has nonetheless managed to play 84 and 88 percent of Tampa's offensive snaps in two playoff games. He caught six passes for 119 yards in the wild-card round, followed by just one reception for a three-yard touchdown in the divisional round. Antonio Brown's upcoming absence due to a knee injury of his own could push a few more targets toward Evans or Chris Godwin.

Evans (knee) was limited at Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans maintained his activity level from Wednesday, when his reps were capped in a walk-through session. Chris Godwin (quadriceps) is in the same boat as Evans, while Antonio Brown (knee) has been unable to practice this week. Even if Evans is unable to put in a full session Friday, it appears as if the Buccaneers are managing his practice reps to make sure he's ready for Sunday's NFC Championship Game at Green Bay.

Evans (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate.
EDGE Analysis
The same applies to Chris Godwin (hip/quad) and Ronald Jones (finger/calf), with Greg Auman of The Athletic suggesting that the trio's listed limitations can be viewed as carry-over from last week. Evans logged limited practices in advance of this past Sunday's divisional-round win over the Saints, but ended up approaching the contest minus an injury designation.

Evans brought in one of three targets for a three-yard touchdown in the Buccaneers' 30-20 divisional-round win over the Saints on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
On an evening where the Buccaneers passing game cooled off significantly, Evans tied a season-low figure in receptions while just exceeding his low-water mark in catches. However, the multi-time Pro Bowler at least made his one reception count, as it allowed Tampa Bay to overcome a 6-3 second-quarter deficit. Evans didn't appear to show any limitations with respect to the hyperextended knee he'd suffered back in Week 17, and he'll look to bounce back with a much more productive environment in what will admittedly be some challenging weather at Lambeau Field during next Sunday's NFC Championship Game.

Evans (knee) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's NFC divisional-round matchup against the Saints, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans managed a trio of limited practice sessions this week while continuing to recover from a hyperextended left knee sustained Week 17, and Jenna Laine of ESPN reports that he hope to be "closer to 100 percent" in New Orleans. The star wideout was only able to log one limited practice prior to the wild-card win over Washington, in which he gutted out his injury while catching six passes for 119 yards. His increased practice activity this week would seem to reinforce the notion that Evans will be at or near top form versus the Saints.
