Footballguys on Mike Evans

Evans inherits clear WR1 alpha role in 49ers offense with depleted receiving room.

San Francisco needs Evans more than ever after Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, and Skyy Moore departed. Ricky Pearsall is set to have season-ending knee surgery, and the receiving room is otherwise green. Offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak already called Evans a Hall of Fame talent and the matchup they want to feed in single coverage -- that's WR1 language. Vic Tafur, who covers the Niners for The Athletic, told Running Backs Who Have there's no doubt the team expects Evans to handle a true alpha role.
