2025 Fantasy Outlook
Evans was scooped up by the Panthers in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft after posting 421 yards and three TDs in 16 games for Notre Dame in 2024. That production was disappointing considering he needed only eight games to rack up 422 yards in 2023. Carolina’s an intriguing landing spot for the 6-foot-5, 253-pound TE given the team’s lack of established talent at the position, though 2024 fourth-round pick Ja’Tavion Sanders has more pass catching upside than Evans, and Tommy Tremble’s a better blocker. Evans doesn’t have any glaring holes in his game, which could help him earn a role on offense out of the gate, but separating from NFL defenders will be tough with his underwhelming 4.72 speed.

Paces Panthers' TEs in win
Evans caught all three of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Evans led the Panthers' tight-end corps in targets, receptions and yards during Sunday's upset win, while Ja'Tavion Sanders (no targets) and Tommy Tremble (one catch for two yards on two targets) saw minimal involvement. Evans, a 2025 fifth-round pick from Notre Dame, has now caught 14 of 18 targets for 138 yards and two touchdowns through 13 contests this season. His role could continue to grow within Carolina's offense as the year progresses.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fourth-round pick in Reuter's mock
Chad Reuter of NFL.com's mock draft 2.0 has Evans going to the Vikings in the fourth round.
ANALYSIS
Evans had 422 receiving yards in eight games for Notre Dame in 2023, then just 421 yards in 16 games in 2024, though he increased his touchdown total from one to three. If Evans goes to Minnesota, he would project to occupy a backup role behind T.J. Hockenson.
