I still like Mixon and think he's a good player but nothing about his performance so far this year warrants keeping Evans on the sidelines every play. We all saw Evans flash some talent in the pre-season. I figured that performance alone would earn him the occasional couple of plays but apparently the coaches are happy to make him a KO return man only? Heck even last season he got more playing time. Also, with our new shotgun heavy scheme his speed and burst could be an asset. It's really confusing to me.
Evans is currently 34th in Kick Return average. Before we start looking at an expanded role in the offense, he needs to at least be mediocre as a returner. He really hasn't done anything to warrant more touches. If anything, we should be looking for someone to take over his KR duties.
