Bucs' Mike Evans (hamstring) 'likely to play' Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) is now considered 'likely to play' in Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

What It Means:

Evans was listed as doubtful for Sunday's game just two days ago, but was upgraded to questionable yesterday and is now considered likely to play. It's unclear how much the star receiver will actually play given that he's still nursing the injury, but we'll hopefully learn more about the team's plans for their receiver ahead of the game.

Given that Evans' role is up in the air at this moment, our projections for the receiver include 2.7 receptions for 38.7 yards and 0.2 touchdowns for 6.6 fantasy points. This could be a high-scoring affair, which would set Evans up for success if he can manage to play through his injury.
