49ersWalt's takeOct 19, 11:49 PM

49ers WR Mike Evans has Achilles tendinitis

Update: Kyle Shanahan said Evans (Achilles) is sore and won't need more testing. "Hopefully he'll be able to play next week." (Vic Tafur)

Walt's take: I wrote this week that Mike Evans should continue his domination as long as he doesn't get hurt. It's hard to argue against the 49ers having the top spot in the power rankings, and Mike Evans was dominant.
