2026 Outlook
Signed with the San Francisco 49ers this offseason after over a decade in Tampa Bay. Joins a Kyle Shanahan offense that needed a tall boundary target alongside Christian McCaffrey, Ricky Pearsall, Jauan Jennings, and Christian Kirk. Big Blue View flagged that the deep 49ers target distribution (Evans, Kirk, McCaffrey, tight ends, plus second-round rookie DeZhaun Strobling) puts a ceiling on any one WR's volume.
Role / Depth Chart
Likely the 49ers' outside boundary WR1. Will compete with Pearsall, Jennings, and Kirk for targets.
Injury Status
Healthy.
