Fantasy Football Impact: If Mike Evans Is Ruled OUT For MNF, Should You Start Brandin Cooks Or Jacob Cowing?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans faces an uncertain fate for Monday Night Football due to rib and Achilles injuries. With 49ers beat writer Larry Krueger casting doubt on his availability, fantasy football managers are left wondering whether to start Brandin Cooks or Jacob Cowing if Evans is ruled out. Cowing played a significant role last week, despite only seeing one target, while Cooks, although new to the team, also saw a substantial amount of action.

If Evans is unable to play, Kittle is expected to be the team's leading pass-catcher, while McCaffrey and Farrell may also see increased involvement. With the loss of Evans and Deebo Samuel, QB Brock Purdy will be without his top six wide receivers, making his job even more challenging against the Washington Commanders.
