Mike Evans

Mayfield's knee injury appears to be in the rearview at this point. The fearless downfield passer should turn in a fantasy-friendly outing as the Buccaneers attempt to continue Mike Evans' 1,000-yard-season streak. Mayfield is a borderline QB1/2.

Otton is averaging 2.5 catches for 36 since Mike Evans returned to the lineup and a bum knee isn't going to help his cause. Even if he suits up, Otton is buried in the TE2 ranks for Week 16. Ko Kieft and Payne Durham would see extra reps at tight end if Otton is out, though neither would crack to the top 24 fantasy tight ends.

Buccaneers TE Cade Otton (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. We don't have any other details on his status or whether he's in danger of missing Sunday night's game vs. the Cowboys. Otton has averaged just 4.3 targets and 2.5 catches over the last four games with WR Mike Evans back.

Otton popped up on the injury report with a knee issue, getting a non-participant estimation for Wednesday. It is still early in the week, but notable that Otton starts out with a DNP. The tight end has taken a backseat in the Bucs' offense with Mike Evans back, but his status is worth monitoring for fantasy managers looking to start him in Week 16 against the Cowboys.

Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans has never had less than 1,000 yards in his career.
