I'm having trouble understanding the logic to this move. Slaytons break out game was six points more than Evans top score of twenty three... Which he's gone over three times. I get the Lattimore angle but you have to figure the offense will do everything they can pre-snap to force the issue. Not to mention Evans can drop 2/2/2 game with his skills. I'm pretty sure he's done that before.
The track record against Lattimore says otherwise. That said, Evans could bust that trend at anytime and Lattimore seems like he can leave the game at any time with injury. Guy is always banged up.
This off season the Bucs got a new, and more creative OC. I expect a lot more trips bunches and motion to get Evans separated from Lattimore, especially at the goal line.

Hard to know. Bucs have three games and then their bye week so there’s speculation he could return after that depending on grade.
I don’t mind him starting the game. But he hurt himself in the game and could barely run out there. Then he hurt it worse.In what era of the NFL are we that players don’t play if they’re a little nicked up?Travesty. He shouldn’t have been in the game.x.com
He didn’t even have an injury designation heading into the game.
I’m sure Bucs’ fans (me) and his fantasy owners were thrilled he was playing when he caught a TD on the first drive.
Wasn’t so thrilled when he dropped the next one and strained the hammy of course.
I guess? He was well enough to beat coverage on the first TD and then beat coverage again on what should have been #2. Yes, he re-injured it, but I don't know how you can know that's going to happen.I don’t mind him starting the game. But he hurt himself in the game and could barely run out there.

He was limping around after the first td. He was obviously hurt. The training staff should have stepped in. IMOI guess?

Ok. He had plenty of separation on the play where he was injured. I don't know what else to say.He was limping around after the first td. He was obviously hurt.

Yeah, somehow it went from "a few red zone opportunities" to blocking LB's on run plays. Dumb.
Coaching malpractice.
It's almost guaranteed to happen. All it takes is one little extra effort and that hammy (or quad) goes pop.I guess?

Well, he was good enough for 2 TDs thru a Qtr and a half. I agree he had no business playing on a hammy that tender.
Two?
The hammy was fine right up until the catching of the ball part. I didn’t know the two were intertwined.
He had the 2nd one and dropped it to grab his hammy.
Redraft?
Yes, agreed.
No. Pick him up.
I hope he gets it, but fairly easy wins wouldn't equate to yardage for WR
True. Maybe easy is not the right word. Mike should have his way with the upcoming defenses.
I doubt he gets it. Coen has really reigned in the downfield passing, which has been a net positive for the offense overall. Mike running those clearouts and taking defenders with him opened things up. They were humming prior to the injuries. He was still only playing about 60% of the snaps even before he got hurt though.
Counter point, Mike is a Stud and Baker will feed him
Don’t think your snap percentage is accurate. He is in the high 77-82% for almost every game besides one before injury.
