Chris Evans 0 offensive snaps? - Nicomo Cosca - 09-11-2022
Why? Once Tee went out, and Boyd got a little banged up wouldn’t it have made sense to get Evans involved in the quick passing game? Thomas and Morgan are absolute bums as receivers, and Evans has shown he can be a weapon (Lions game last year).
I’m not thrilled with Taylor for keeping 25 on the bench all day.

Chris Evans. The new Auden Tate. Only the fans think he's something special

He’s probably better than Thomas and Morgan. Which was the point.
In his rookie season Evans had 151 yards and 2 TD’s receiving, and that was with him only playing 11% of the offensive snaps.
No one is claiming he’s “special.” You don’t need to be special to be a better weapon than guys like Taylor, Thomas, and Morgan.

I agree. I thought this was the year to get him more snaps....

I don't get the love affair with Perine he is good but not explosive. Also Evans looks to be a better fit with Burrow than does Perine.
