2024 Fantasy Outlook
A sixth-round pick in 2023, Evans suited up for 10 games as a rookie but made very little impact. The Ole Miss product has the tools to be a lead back, combining good size and speed with a plus burst and a knack for plowing through contact, but injuries, ball security issues and a general lack of football IQ hurt his draft stock. He's still a developmental project for the Rams, and the team's offseason additions to the RB depth chart, including third-round pick Blake Corum, suggest Evans isn't expected to make the leap in 2024.

Signs with Gang Green

ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old was added to the Jets' practice squad mid-December after being cut from the Rams' practice squad in late August. Evans, a 2023 sixth-round pick from Ole Miss, appeared in 10 games with the Rams during his rookie campaign, taking nine carries for 19 yards across 16 offensive snaps.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Although he was three picks away from falling to the seventh round of this year's draft, Evans is a former blue-chip recruit who consistently produced at TCU and Mississippi. He was outdone by Kendre Miller at TCU and Quinshon Judkins at Mississippi, but there's no shame in getting outplayed by two potential NFL standouts. Evans' career rushing stats (1,999 yards and 18 touchdowns at 6.9 YPC) were consistently efficient on modest volume, which should make him a good off-the-bench runner in the NFL, at worst. His athletic testing was mediocre, with his 4.51 pro day 40 at 5-11, 208, indicating size-adjusted speed below starter quality, so his ceiling might be that of a good backup. But he is the Rams' best pure runner after Cam Akers, which puts him in the mix for touches.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
To compete with 2-3 other RBs
Coach Sean McVay said Friday that the Rams will dress at least three of Evans, Royce Freeman, Darrell Henderson or Myles Gaskin for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Adam Grosbard of the Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Evans was the only healthy running back left on the Rams' 53-man roster following a Week 6 win over the Cardinals that saw Kyren Williams and Ronnie Rivers pick up an ankle and knee injury, respectively. Los Angeles has added three other options to the mix, though, as the team signed Freeman from its practice squad and Gaskin off Minnesota's practice squad in addition to signing Henderson to the practice squad spot vacated by Freeman. While Evans may still wind up seeing the majority of touches, the presence of two more veterans could cut into the rookie sixth-round draft pick's Week 7 workload substantially.
