Emeka Egbuka vs. Pittsburgh — Reliable Target Share Tested by Looming Quarterback Change
Emeka Egbuka enters Sunday fully healthy as Tampa Bay's top outside receiver, but the passing game faces disruption with starting quarterback Baker Mayfield doubtful due to a thumb injury. Rookie Jalon Daniels is slated to start, and with Jalen McMillan still sidelined on injured reserve, Egbuka should remain the focal perimeter target alongside Chris Godwin Jr.
Our weekly projection models Egbuka for 10.4 fantasy points on roughly 6 targets and 36 yards. While the projected low-scoring matchup against Pittsburgh's defense caps his explosive ceiling, his consistent volume makes him a viable WR3 or flex option who fantasy managers can still deploy with tempered expectations.

Mike Evans vs. WAS: Massive Role in High-Scoring Matchup
Evans missed practice Thursday due to Achilles soreness and lingering ribs, but he remains San Francisco's clear primary receiver with Deebo Samuel Sr. sidelined by a hamstring strain. Operating as Brock Purdy's top perimeter target on the depth chart, Evans is coming off a dominant 113-yard, one-touchdown performance.
Started in 91% of leagues, Evans enters a favorable environment with a projected 51-point game total. Our weekly projection expects 5 receptions for 75 yards and 16.4 fantasy points against Washington. Continue monitoring his weekend status, but fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats if active.
