Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said he doesn’t expect Mike Evans to return before the team’s Week 11 bye.

Evans entered Monday’s game with a hamstring injury and left early in the game due to the same injury. With Chris Godwin out for the season, Cade Otton and Jalen McMillan should be among the players who take on an expanded role.
