When Will Mike Evans Return? Bucs Open Practice Window for Injured Wide Receiver
The Buccaneers aim to strengthen their roster as Evans and McMillan near recovery from injuries during a critical playoff push, with Tampa Bay holding a 7-5 record.
- On Dec. 3, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers opened 21-day practice windows for Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan, starting an evaluation period until Dec. 24, Jonathan Jones and NFL Media report.
- Because McMillan and Evans recovered from neck and collarbone injuries, Tampa Bay opened 21-day practice windows to evaluate Mike Evans, Buccaneers star wide receiver, and Jalen McMillan, Buccaneers second-year wide receiver.
- One report said Evans is set to practice Wednesday, while Jonathan Jones cautioned they will `take some time getting back on the game field`; Evans could appear as limited on practice reports.
- With a half-game lead in the NFC South, Evans and McMillan's potential returns could boost Tampa Bay Buccaneers' bid to capture a fifth straight division title as SportsLine gives them an 85% chance to win the division and an 86% chance to make the playoffs.
- Despite the accelerated window, Coach Todd Bowles had said Evans would be out 'mostly toward the end of the year,' and Evans' streak of 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons will end in 2025, leaving him tied for the record.
