Mike Evans scores another touchdown for Tampa Bay
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans caught 5 passes on 9 targets for 49 yards and 1 touchdown in a 27-24, Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night.
Evans was third on the team in targets behind Antonio Brown (13) and Chris Godwin (10), but six of his looks came in the end zone and he was able to turn one into his ninth touchdown of the season. Evans has only reached the century mark twice this season and is averaging a career-low 51.2 yards per game, but he is on pace for the highest touchdown total of his seven-year career. Evans will likely only be able to sustain fantasy value as the No. 3 receiver in the Buccaneers' offense if Tom Brady continues to pepper him with targets in the red zone. Tampa Bay takes on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12.
Evans scored 13.4 FanDuel points on Monday night and is averaging 12.1 FanDuel points per game (WR22). His production largely stems from Evans' league-high 30 red-zone targets this season. He is tied for the fourth-most touchdowns while ranking 29th in receptions, making Evans a prime regression candidate down the stretch. The Chiefs are allowing the fourth-fewest FanDuel points to the wide receiver position this season.
