Shaquelle Evans

The New York Jets have place fourth-round pick Shaq Evans on season-ending IR, following his shoulder surgery on Tuesday. Evans revealed that he was having surgery via Twitter.

Fantasy Impact

This news confirms what was thought when Evans tweeted that he was having surgery. Obviously, Evans has no fantasy value this season, and it will be next year before he even becomes a fantasy option again.

Jets rookie receiver Shaq Evans has said that he will be having surgery on his injured shoulder. He announced it over Twitter on Tuesday: "Going under the knife today. Praying for a speedy recovery!" The Jets could decide to put Evans on injured reserve, meaning he'd be out for the season. But they would have to wait until after final roster cuts to avoid having Evans pass through waivers.

Fantasy Impact

Evans wasn't expected to make any waves in fantasy football this year after disappointing in training camp, so him ending up on IR won't likely change much with regards to his fantasy value.

Jets rookie wide receiver Shaquelle Evans suffered a severe shoulder injury in training camp. Evans may be headed to the IR.

Fantasy Impact

Evans never really had much fantasy value with the Jets current quarterback situation. If Evans goes to the IR, the Jets will have to utilize other targets. Look for Decker and Kerley to be the only Jets receivers with fantasy value.
