Key Points:

  • The 49ers have ruled out wide receiver Mike Evans for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys due to Achilles tendinitis, but head coach Kyle Shanahan says Evans is recovering well.
  • Shanahan emphasized prioritizing Evans' long-term health over short-term gains, noting that Evans could probably play if necessary but the team wants to ensure a full recovery.
  • Evans might be ready for the following week's game against the Minnesota Vikings in Mexico City, though Shanahan is not certain yet.
  • Evans, 33, has been a key player this season, leading the team with an average of 70 receiving yards per game, and the 49ers aim to have him fully healthy for the playoffs.
