Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles told reporters after the game that WR Mike Evans suffered a broken clavicle along with the concussion that forced him from Monday night’s game against the Lions.
Bowles said Evans will miss most of the season with this issue.
A stint on injured reserve is certain with this type of injury, which can be a six-to-eight week issue, depending on some factors regarding the injury.

Evans made a base salary of $13 million in the final year of his deal and was set to become an unrestricted free agent when he agreed to a two-year extension worth $52 million in 2024.
He is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.
In 2025, Evans has appeared in three games for the Buccaneers and recorded 14 catches for 140 yards and one touchdown.
