Mike Evans Did Not Practice
September 9th, 2020
UPDATED 1:38 p.m. – Ouch!
An official injury report will come out later, but Bucco Bruce Arians specified today that Mike Evans was the only Buccaneer not practicing today, and he did not practice yesterday.
Arians said he’s unsure of Evans’ status going forward and later in his news conference that Evans has a soft tissue injury.
The head coach noted that the Bucs can take Evans “down to the wire,” regarding making a decision prior to Sunday’s kickoff in New Orleans. Arians said Evans has had 1,000 snaps this year and is more than ready to step in.

How the hell does this guy get injured…..i can’t even remember them doing anything strenuous the last week. Wanna bet its a hamstring. Every year. I seear I love Mike but dammit man. Get your stuff right

Isn’t Tuesday usually players day off?
September 9th, 2020 at 1:31 pm
F-ing great!!!!!!!!!! 🙁
……….hey…..atleast we have Brady, right???????
September 9th, 2020 at 1:32 pm
Everyone was pulling their hamstrings last year, Arians said he was probably running his players to much, probably why players are getting more days off this year.

They practiced yesterday. Had the holiday off.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:36 pm
Evans out for any game is not good…..for this game….terrible!!!
September 9th, 2020 at 1:43 pm
Where are all the bandwagons at??
Brady can scramble for a 8-15yd gain. Or Godwin , Scotty are still there. Or turn the game plan around “adjust” to a smash run game ! We have a beast of a oline.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:44 pm
We only have Gronk, Scotty, Godwin, Watson, OJ and Brate left….there could be worse blows to the team.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:51 pm
I swear this team has been cursed since Gruden got fired. Can’t we go into the season with everyone healthy. We are going to need all hands on deck to beat the Saints..
September 9th, 2020 at 1:56 pm
81 It’s really rare that ever happens to any football team.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:58 pm
LETS NOT GO ALL DOOM AND GLOOM….LOL….
this is why we have fournette and rojo….godwin, watson and scotty…oj and gronk…
ME13 will be ready to play….
GO BUCS!!!!

Unless Mike lost a leg he’ll be playing Sunday.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:59 pm
Possible strategy, Joe? Now the Saints have to plan for the Buccaneers with and without Evans.
September 9th, 2020 at 1:59 pm
813 even if he isn’t we are deep enough at the position that we don’t have to trot literal bums out there.
I am confident this team can still win if Evans misses time.
September 9th, 2020 at 2:06 pm
I hate to say this, and he’s one of the best WR’s in the league, but Big Mike has a “soft tissue” or hamstring injury at some point every year it seems…we’ve just got lucky and it’s happened in the offseason mostly, but it’s still troublesome
September 9th, 2020 at 2:11 pm
Soft tissue is at best a two weeks issue. At worst he’ll be dealing with it all year.
September 9th, 2020 at 2:14 pm
Soft tissue injury…dangit. I’d sit Evans this week and get him ready for the home opener. With all these weapons, the Bucs should be able to get through this week.
September 9th, 2020 at 2:32 pm
Unreal. What kind of soft tissue injury? How severe? Is there a high chance of reinjury? Selfishly speaking, this is really annoying. GD season hasn’t even started with not a lot of hitting and you could have a similar injury that sat him last year? Jesus Christ guy. And he is a very big reason as to why Brady came here in the first place, just incomprehensibly annoying, I personally have low patience for this. Best ability is availability
September 9th, 2020 at 2:54 pm
Here we go lol all these weapons, a starter is day to day and the panic is already setting in at the beginning of the season. We know what it is like to be with out Evans, heck we know what it’s like to be without Evans and Godwin. Even if he was limited or out it changes nothing about how dominant we can be
September 9th, 2020 at 3:08 pm
Anybody consider that he’s just screwing with Sean Payton? You know ask Ndog, BA is a big liar 🤥
😂😂😂
September 9th, 2020 at 3:08 pm
This sucks if he can’t play but lets be honest Mike hasn’t done a thing against the Saints anyway. I believe he has 2TDs against them total since 2016. Yes I’m hoping he can play and get on track but I’m just stating a fact.
September 9th, 2020 at 3:38 pm
i bet they are just resting big mike, 10 to 1 he’ll play opening day
September 9th, 2020 at 3:40 pm
remember last week it was godwin so chill out people go bucs
September 9th, 2020 at 3:41 pm
Evans and Carlton Davis both questionable for Week 1
September 9th, 2020 at 4:24 pm
Good point JMark
September 9th, 2020 at 4:41 pm
Hamstring it is.
September 9th, 2020 at 4:48 pm
Well we all know he better play or Tom Brady’s going to cry if he doesn’t have all his weapons and making an excuse as to why he didn’t play well.
September 9th, 2020 at 5:28 pm
Old habits die hard. A friendly reminder Jameis will be at the game but for the other team.
Relax.
We have the GOAT.
Go Bucs!!!

JESUS, YOU LITERALLY DESCRIBED YOURSELF TO THE T!!! Exchange Tom Brady for NPUPPY and the last 2 he’s to JW. That was you all offseason.
THANK GOD THE CANCER IS GONE AND I CAN FINALLY BREATHE AGAIN!!!

The Bucs are trolling Lost Dog and Little Bo Peep and I couldn’t be happier about it.
It means we are on the right track.
In BA I Trust!
