Mike Evans Dealing with Minor Quad Strain, Expected to Avoid Significant Time
49ers wide receiver Mike Evans sat out Monday's practice with a very minor quad strain and is not expected to miss meaningful time.
What happened
Mike Evans did not practice Monday due to a quad strain. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport characterized the injury as "very minor," indicating the veteran should only miss a few days as the 49ers manage his workload early in camp. Evans had been performing well in the opening sessions before the issue arose.
Fantasy impact
This is a positive update for Evans managers. With Ricky Pearsall already ruled out for the year, Evans remains the focal point of the 49ers' receiving corps. Expect only a short absence and no change to his draft-day value as a solid WR2.
