Evans Questionable for Broncos Game

49ers wide receiver Mike Evans is questionable to play against the Broncos after injuring his ribs, but plans to use a protective compression shirt.

Mike Evans is questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos after suffering rib injuries. Despite the pain, which he described as feeling like "somebody stabbed me in my chest," Evans plans to play using a special compression shirt with padding for protection.

Coach Kyle Shanahan called Evans a "game-time decision," noting that he broke his ribs himself this summer and wouldn't be playing if it were his injury. "He's definitely a lot tougher than me," Shanahan said. Several other 49ers players including Nick Bosa and James Thompson Jr. were ruled out for the game. truewildgame.online
