Evans' absence not the cause of offensive stall; team can manage his recovery.

The source argues the 49ers' second-half offensive stall against Washington was not due to Evans' absence. The team could give Evans close to three weeks off to recover ahead of Week 9 against the Raiders. Evans receives 23.5% of targets, the highest on the team, but the source contends the offense is well-equipped to function without him for a week of practice and that the pass-catching corps without Evans is still better than what the team used in 2025.
