49ers Announce Bad Mike Evans Injury News Days Before Falcons Game
The San Francisco 49ers have confirmed that star wide receiver Mike Evans will not play their Week 7 game against the Falcons.
The San Francisco 49ers are scheduled to take on the Atlanta Falcons in a Week 7 matchup on Sunday. The 49ers aim to maintain their perfect record and climb to a 7-0 standing in the process. Nevertheless, the team is facing a setback with star wide receiver Mike Evans sidelined due to his Achilles injury, as confirmed by head coach Kyle Shanahan to ESPN's Ian Rapoport.
Evans had already missed the 49ers' Week 6 game against the Washington Commanders due to the same injury. With this development, Evans now appears set to miss additional time for the San Francisco squad. This is a significant blow for the 49ers, given Evans' pivotal role in their lineup. Moreover, the team has been grappling with a series of injuries this season, despite their flawless record.
In six games so far this season, Evans has contributed three touchdowns, 27 receptions, and 420 receiving yards to the 49ers' offense.
