From the episode

Mike Evans. I mean, he, part of the reason that the 49ers didn't score in that second half is because Mike Evans wasn't on the field. Their offense with and without him was night and day. He's averaging .33 EPA per outrun. That's the highest in the next-gen era.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalInjury

Evans' injury critical; highest EPA per target (.33) in next-gen era.

Evans' injury is significant for the 49ers offense; he's averaging .33 EPA per target, the highest in the next-gen era, and serves as the critical safety valve and contested-catch target on third down. The 49ers' offense with and without him was night and day in their last game, and his absence cannot be understated.
