Is Mike Evans playing today? Why Bucs WR is off to slow start in Week 17

2 hours ago 2

Since returning from injury, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has returned to form.

In his first game back from injury, Evans broke the century mark. In his second game, Evans found pay dirt while adding five catches for 31 yards.

However, Evans is off to a quiet start in the Week 17 game against the Miami Dolphins. Here's a closer look at what's going on.

Is Mike Evans playing today?

Yes, Evans is active and healthy, and he even saw a target on the opening drive but couldn't reel in the pass.

Despite completing six passes, none of quarterback Baker Mayfield's throws connected with Evans.

It shouldn't be long before he gets going, though.
