Head coach Todd Bowles confirmed Tuesday that Evans will likely remain out through the Buccaneers' Week 11 bye due to a "moderate" right hamstring injury, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.
As a result, Tampa Bay isn't placing Evans on injured reserve, which would require a four-game absence that would extend into Week 13. If all goes well in Evans' recovery from the hamstring strain he aggravated Monday against the Ravens, he'll return to the lineup Nov. 24 versus the Giants. Bowles also confirmed that Chris Godwin (ankle) will undergo surgery and is expected to miss the rest of the season, so quarterback Baker Mayfield will be without his top two targets for at least the next three games.
