Lee Evans was active for a second consecutive game in last week’s 16-6 win over the 49ers, and Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Evans will get more work in two-receiver sets alongside Anquan Boldin or Torrey Smith.

That has nothing to do with how Boldin and Smith have performed, though. Boldin leads the Ravens with 48 catches for 747 yards and three touchdowns and Smith has caught 31 passes for 613 yards and a team-high five touchdowns. Harbaugh said Evans will see more playing time so he can keep Boldin and Smith fresh.

“Lee’s a guy that we want to work in more and more,” Harbaugh said Monday. “We like playing both the tight ends, too, so there’s a mix of guys that we’ve got to work in there, but that’s a good problem to have.”

TE Cade Otton, S Antoine Winfield Jr. and WR Sterling Shepard are all OUT for Bucs in Week 17.

Related Players: Payne Durham, Ko Kieft, Devin Culp, Trey Palmer, Ryan Miller

Fantasy Impact:

Shepard shouldn't impact the rest of the team's target share too much, while none of these tight ends need to be considered.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins on track to play Week 17

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (questionable, ankle/knee) improved every day in practice and there's optimism he can play Sat. vs. Broncos, barring new development, per sources.

Related Players: Ja'Marr Chase, Andrei Iosivas, Mike Gesicki

Fantasy Impact:

Iosivas is a fine deep-league WR5 if Higgins misses, and Gesicki would be firmly in the TE streaming streets, but Higgins typically plays when "questionable" this season. Consider Higgins a WR2 if he's on the field.
