Bruce Arians on Mike Evans' knee: 'no structural damage'

Jan 04, 2021

“The MRI showed no structural damage,” Bucs head coach Bruce Arians told the media Monday. “It was a hyperextension. I saw him in the training room a little while ago – there’s very, very little swelling and he’ll be day-to-day. While Evans’ status for Saturday’s wild-card game against the Washington Football Team is still unclear, Arians said he’s hopeful Evans will be able to practice by Thursday.

Fantasy Impact:

It looks like the Bucs dodged a big bullet here and hopefully, Mike Evans will be back in time for some playoff action.

Jets WR Elijah Moore to keep getting chances

Newsday

yesterday · 7:40 PM EDT

Though rookie wide receiver Elijah Moore’s stats haven’t lived up to the promise he showed in preseason, Robert Saleh said Monday that not only will he continue to get his chances, but that there was a prevalent belief that he’ll soon turn his season around.

Fantasy Impact:

Moore has seen plenty of playing time but only has eight catches for 66 yards in 20 targets (he did miss a game with a concussion). HC Saleh, though, pointed to his game in London against the Falcons and their brutal secondary, where he did draw a 41-yard pass interference call. Moore started out having a great camp this year before getting hurt.

Colts unsure if WR T.Y. Hilton (quad) will play Week 7

Veteran wide receiver T.Y. Hilton provided a spark on Sunday but suffered a quadriceps injury on his final catch of the game.

Related players: Zach Pascal, Mike Strachan, Ashton Dulin

Fantasy Impact:

The Colts are suddenly banged up at WR yet again as Parris Campbell is expected to miss time. Pascal could stand to benefit the most with Strachan perhaps seeing more time as well if Hilton can't play. The story did say if Hilton misses time, it would be minimal.

Browns QB Maker Mayfield (shoulder) to get second opinion

No team has been hit harder by injuries than the Cleveland Browns. The Browns had 20 players on their estimated Monday injury report in preparation for Thursday night's home game against the Denver Broncos. Among those players are quarterback Baker Mayfield, who underwent an MRI on his left shoulder the day after Cleveland's 37-14 home loss to Arizona.

Mayfield will exercise his collectively bargained right to a second opinion with a doctor of his choosing.

Related players: Case Keenum

Fantasy Impact:

The second opinion will take place before coach Kevin Stefanski can say whether or not Mayfield or Keenum will start Thursday night's game, according to Cleveland.com's Mary Kay Cabot. Obviously the short week comes at a bad time for the Browns with Mayfield and several of their key players on the injury report.
