Mike Evans Remains Limited in Practice, Return from IR Nears

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (collarbone) was limited at Thursday's practice, maintaining his activity level from Wednesday's walkthrough. Evans is seeking his first game action since sustaining a broken collarbone in Week 7. The Buccaneers opened his practice window to return from injured reserve Wednesday. Coach Todd Bowles noted Evans is "physically fine" but needs to get acclimated to football activities. His limited reps indicate he still has work to do, with Friday's injury report crucial for his potential return Sunday against the Saints.
