Evans projects for 15+ TDs in 2026 despite age; elite red zone role under Shanahan.
Mike EvansWRSF
JJ Zachariason projects Mike Evans for 15+ touchdowns in 2026 despite turning 33 in August. Evans holds a consistent top-five red zone role, and Shanahan deliberately acquired him as a red zone threat—similar to Davante Adams' 2025 role with the Rams. Evans has posted 11+ touchdowns in four of the last five seasons. Zachariason notes Evans is "better in half PPR than full" but wants him on his team because of the touchdown upside; the age concern is acknowledged but offset by the defined role and scoring ceiling.
