The Arizona Cardinals take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday in Week 3 of the NFL season. They kick off from Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara in the late afternoon at 4:05 p.m. ET (1:05 p.m. Arizona time). Both teams have a few injured players, but the 49ers have only one who is questionable, and it is the highest-profile player in the game with a questionable status — receiver Mike Evans.
Evans suffered a hip injury last week in the 49ers' 35-13 win over the Miami Dolphins. He had three receptions for 54 yards before exiting the game. He did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but he was a limited participant on Friday before being listed officially questionable on the 49ers' final injury report.
If Evans is unable to play, that improves the
Cardinals' chances of winning, but fantasy owners will want to know his status, so to know whether or not play him of keep him on their bench.
Is Mike Evans playing today?
According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Evans is good to go.
49ers WR Mike Evans (questionable, hip) plans to play for the 49ers on Sunday vs Arizona, per source.

He plans to play. The question is whether or not he will be at full speed.
How long was WR Mike Evans out?
Evans did not miss a game. He played in the 49ers' win last week and missed two days of practice, but he will not have missed any games.
