Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans returned to the practice field on Saturday and will be designated as questionable to play against the visiting Baltimore Ravens on Monday, head coach Todd Bowles announced.

Evans sat out practices on Thursday and Friday while dealing with a hamstring injury.

“He did some things today that were encouraging,” Bowles said. “We’ll see how the next two guys and we’ll see how he feels Monday. He’s questionable right now.”

Evans aggravated his injury during Tampa Bay’s 51-27 victory over the host New Orleans Saints on Sunday. He left the game in the second quarter and played sparingly afterward, totaling two catches for 34 yards.

Evans, 31, has 25 receptions for 310 yards and is tied for a league-leading five touchdown grabs.

Evans is pursuing Jerry Rice’s record of 11 consecutive 1,000-yard seasons in 2024 after hitting that mark in each of his first 10 years with the Bucs. He has started 159 of 160 career regular-season games and has 787 receptions for 11,990 yards and 99 touchdowns since Tampa Bay selected him seventh overall in the 2014 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M.

A five-time Pro Bowl selection including 2023, when he led the NFL with 13 TD receptions, Evans signed a two-year, $41 million contract in March that includes $29 million guaranteed.

Also on Saturday, Bowles said the Bucs (4-2) expect to have wide receiver Trey Palmer return from a two-game absence due to a concussion.

Wide receiver Kameron Johnson (ankle), tight end Payne Durham (calf) and cornerback Jamel Dean (hamstring) have been ruled out for the game against the Ravens (4-2).
