A week ago, we were told to watch out for Mike Evans to the San Francisco 49ers. That move is official, as national reporters confirmed that Evans signed a deal for three years to join the Niners after 12 seasons in Tampa Bay.
Mike Evans extensive injury history
The six-time Pro Bowler turns 33 in August. Evans was limited to eight games last season. According to Draft Sharks, which tracks the injury history of a player, Evans is given a 93 percent chance to miss at least two quarters in 2026. He missed five games after suffering a concussion
and a broken collarbone on October 20. That was after missing three games in September with a hamstring injury.
Unfortunately, Evans is no stranger to hamstring injuries. He missed three games in 2024 due to a Grade 2 hamstring strain suffered in Week 6. He’s had a hamstring injury of some sort every year since 2019. It hasn’t always meant Evans would miss games, but a series here and there adds up. As he ages, one can’t help but wonder how that injury history would improve.
