San Francisco's receiver room needs him. Brandon Aiyuk is gone, along with Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, and Skyy Moore in free agency. Ricky Pearsall is talented but injury-prone, Demarcus Robinson is a slot piece, and rookie De'Zhaun Stribling is a deep-threat speedster, not an alpha. OC Klay Kubiak has already called Evans a Hall-of-Fame receiver and the matchup San Francisco wants to feed in single coverage -- that's WR1 talk.

Evans fills critical alpha role in 49ers' depleted receiver room with OC endorsement.

Mike Evans joined the San Francisco 49ers and fills a critical need in their receiver room. Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, and Skyy Moore departed in free agency. Ricky Pearsall is talented but injury-prone, Demarcus Robinson is a slot piece, and rookie De'Zhaun Stribling is a deep-threat speedster, not an alpha. Offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak has already called Evans a Hall-of-Fame receiver and the matchup San Francisco wants to feed in single coverage -- that's WR1 talk.
