Evans (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

On the plus side, Evans, who suffered a hyperextended knee this past Sunday, avoided structural damage and was on the field for Tuesday's walk-through. At this stage it's too early to know if the wideout will be available for Saturday's playoff opener against Washington, but coach Bruce Arians noted Tuesday that he's hopeful on that front.

Coach Bruce Arians relayed that Evans (knee) participated fully in Tuesday's walk-through, but the coach noted the wideout wouldn't have taken part in a full-speed practice, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

That Evans was on the field Tuesday after hurting his knee Sunday is a step in the right direction, with Arians indicating that he's hopeful the team will have the pass catcher available for Saturday night's playoff opener against Washington. What Evans is able to do at practice Wednesday and how he responds to any reps he gets in the process should help begin to clarify his chances of suiting up this weekend.

EDGE Analysis

It's encouraging news after coach Bruce Arians revealed Monday that Evans avoided structural knee damage and is considered day-to-day. While it's unclear what capacity Evans participated in, the team should issue an official practice report at some point Tuesday with Saturday's wild-card game against Washington on the horizon.

Coach Bruce Arians said Monday that Evans (knee) has avoided any structural damage and is considered day-to-day, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Arians said that the hope is for Evans, who was forced out of Sunday's win over the Falcons, could return to practice Thursday, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. James Palmer of NFL Network reports that Arians dubbed the injury a hyperextension. That Evans has avoided a severe injury is good news for Tampa Bay's offense, and it seems like he could even have a shot at suiting up in Washington on Saturday. If Evans can't go, on the other hand, Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson could handle additional work behind Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown.

Coach Bruce Arians believes Evans didn't suffer "any serious damage" to his left knee during Sunday's 44-27 win against the Falcons, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans did enough in less than one quarter to reach 1,000 receiving yards for the seventh consecutive season to begin his career, but his fourth and final target fell to the ground when his attempt to catch a Tom Brady pass coincided with his left leg getting stuck in the end-zone turf. The wide receiver is slated for an MRI, and Arians stated the Buccaneers will have more clarity on Evans' situation Monday. If Arians' assessment comes to pass, Evans' activity level in practice this week will be one to watch as Tampa Bay prepares to face off in the wild-card round with the NFC East champion, an opponent that will be determined later Sunday.

Evans is slated to undergo an MRI on his left knee after exiting Sunday's game against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to being forced out of the regular-season finale, Evans caught three of his four targets for 46 yards. If his knee issue forces him to miss time during the team's playoff run, added snaps behind Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown will be available for Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson.

Evans (knee) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

While attempting to make a catch in the end zone near the end of the first quarter, Evans seemed to get his left leg stuck in what has been termed soggy turf by Jennifer Hale of Fox Sports. Evans needed assistance to get to the tunnel before a cart took him to the locker room. The nature of the injury isn't known, but at the time he was ruled out he was donning street clothes and a brace on his left leg.

Evans (leg) went to the locker room during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Falcons, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Evans appeared to get his left leg stuck in the turf as he attempted to catch a Tom Brady pass in the end zone. The nature of the injury isn't known, but Evans required assistance to leave the field.

Evans secured 10 of 12 targets for 181 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 47-7 win over the Lions on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans was an integral part of Tom Brady's record-setting 348-yard first half, but the star wideout didn't let up after his future Hall of Fame quarterback left the game, either. Evans began his sensational day with a 33-yard grab on the Buccaneers' opening drive, and he subsequently recorded a 27-yard touchdown catch to cap off the team's second possession. Evans would continue routinely getting the best of the Lions secondary throughout the day, and he put an exclamation point on his performance via a 22-yard scoring connection with Blaine Gabbert midway through the third quarter. Evans' receiving yardage total was a season high, and it also puts him in position to notch his seventh 1,000-yard campaign in as many pro seasons if he can total at least 40 in a Week 17 divisional contest against the Falcons.

Evans secured six of seven targets for 110 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-27 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Evans was the only one of the top receiving trio of himself, Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown to not find the end zone, but he led the team's pass catchers in receptions and receiving yardage while tying for the lead in targets. The multi-time Pro Bowler last crossed the 100-yard mark back in Week 4, so the boost in production was especially timely for fantasy managers and atoned for Evans' second straight game without a touchdown grab. Evans will look to stay hot in a favorable Week 16 matchup versus the Lions on Saturday afternoon.
