Mike Evans after him well the biggest concern is the age and his wide receiver changing teams uh turns 33 in August... when you've got a guy that could score 15 touchdowns you take notice... he's just routinely amongst what the top five players you want in the red zone... It's Adams and it's Mike Evans... Shanahan goes out there and handpicks someone like Mike Evans, you know, the role is there... I think he can have 15 or more touchdowns.

STACKED’s take

Evans projects for 15+ TDs in 2026 despite age; elite red zone role under Shanahan.

JJ Zachariason projects Mike Evans for 15+ touchdowns in 2026 despite turning 33 in August. Evans holds a consistent top-five red zone role, and Shanahan deliberately acquired him as a red zone threat—similar to Davante Adams' 2025 role with the Rams. Evans has posted 11+ touchdowns in four of the last five seasons. Zachariason notes Evans is "better in half PPR than full" but wants him on his team because of the touchdown upside; the age concern is acknowledged but offset by the defined role and scoring ceiling.
