The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have battled injury after injury at the wide receiver position, but none have been more impactful than Mike Evans. The ageless wonder finally slowed down in 2025, as a hamstring and collarbone injury limited him to just four games, 14 receptions, 140 yards, and one touchdown on the season. While this hasn't been an ideal campaign for him by any stretch of the imagination, he could return to help Tampa Bay secure the NFC South and go on a playoff run.

According to head coach Todd Bowles, Evans could return to practice this week. While Bowles didn't give a more specific timeframe than that, it's safe to assume the future Hall of Famer will return to the field before long. The only question is when he will make his long-awaited return.
