Chris Evans Status

rotoWire
Evans (Coach's Decision) is inactive for Saturday's matchup with the Patriots.

What it means:

With Joe Mixon, Samaje Perine and Trayveon Williams ahead of him on the depth chart and active, Evans will again be a healthy scratch for the Bengals. The 25-year-old has suited up just four times this season and has not since Week 13.
rotoWire
Evans (coach's decision) is inactive Week 14 against the Browns.

What it means:

Evans has been used as a depth running back option this year, but he typically sees most of his work on special teams. With Joe Mixon returning from a concussion this week, the Bengals will elect to keep Trayveon Williams active as the presumed RB3, with Evans now a healthy scratch.
rotoWire
Evans caught the game-winning touchdown pass in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, an eight-yard play in the flats in the fourth quarter.

What it means:

That was the only touch for Evans in the game, but he made it count. Even if Joe Mixon (concussion) does not return next week, Evans will only play a small role in the offense.
rotoWire
Evans was held without a carry or catch in Sunday's win over the Titans.

What it means:

More importantly, teammate Trayveon Williams did contribute offensively, with two carries and a catch. Evans also committed a bad penalty on a "pick" play in the first quarter, wiping out a big Tee Higgins catch-and-run.

Evans (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Titans, according to coach Zac Taylor, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site reports.

What it means:

Evans will return to the field for the first time since Week 9 and could see an increased workload as a complement to Samaje Perine with starter Joe Mixon (concussion) sitting out against Tennessee. The Bengals also have Trayveon Williams on hand for change-of-pace duties in the backfield.
rotoWire
Evans (knee) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's practice report, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

What it means:

Evans missed last week's win over the Steelers due to a knee injury and was limited at practice Wednesday, but he appears to be back to full health ahead of Sunday's game in Tennessee. Joe Mixon is in the league's concussion protocol, so it's possible Evans will take on a starting role in Week 12.
