Bills' Darrynton Evans: Moved to IR, return designation
Evans (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve by the Bills on Tuesday with a designation to return.
Evans hurt his hamstring in the Bills' final preseason game Saturday and must now miss at least the first four weeks of the season. With Frank Gore Jr. getting cut Tuesday, the Bills enter Week 1 with a three-man running back crew of James Cook, Ray Davis and Ty Johnson.

Bills' Darrynton Evans: Won't return Saturday
Evans (hamstring) is out for the rest of Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers.

Evans signed with the Bills in January after spending 2023 with the Bears and Dolphins, carrying the ball 32 times for 121 yards and a score over seven regular-season games.

Dolphins' Darrynton Evans: Elevated from practice squad
The Dolphins elevated Evans from their practice squad Saturday ahead of their Week 15 game versus the Jets.
Evans signed to Miami's practice squad Nov. 21 and was quickly elevated for the team's Week 12 loss to the Jets, carrying the ball twice for eight yards in that contest. He thereafter reverted to the practice squad but could now get a chance for game action Sunday in a rematch with the Jets. Evans could be particularly useful if De'Von Achane, who is questionable due to a toe injury, is unable to suit up.

Dolphins' Darrynton Evans: Bumped up from practice squad
Evans was elevated from the Dolphins' practice squad Thursday.
Evans, who just signed with Miami on Tuesday, will have an opportunity to make his debut with the team Friday against the Jets. With Raheem Mostert (ankle) and De'Von Achane (knee) both managing injuries ahead of the contest, the Dolphins may be depleted at the position with Jeff Wilson the only other fully healthy running back currently on the active roster.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Targeted twice in victory
Evans rushed twice for five yards in the Bears' 16-13 win over the Panthers on Thursday.
After getting 25 combined touches combined Weeks 6 and 7, Evans received three carries and four targets over the past two games. With Khalil Herbert (ankle) appearing set to return to the lineup in Week 11, Evans may not have a spot on the game-day roster going forward.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Three touches in losing effort
Evans had a two-yard rush and two catches for 19 yards in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
After handling 25 touches in Weeks 6 and 7, Evans has seen his workload decrease in each of the last two weeks. He'll likely retain a minor role in the offense until Khalil Herbert (ankle) returns, which could be as soon as Week 10. Once Herbert is back, Evans may be a candidate to be inactive on game days.

Bears' Darrynton Evans: Scores touchdown in losing effort
Evans rushed four times for 18 yards and a touchdown while catching three passes for 22 yards in the Bears' 30-13 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Evans had the most yards among the three Chicago running backs despite having fewer touches than D'Onta Foreman and Roschon Johnson. It seems likely that Evans will remain in the backfield rotation until Khalil Herbert (ankle) returns from injured reserve, which could be as soon as Week 10.
