San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans is ruled out for their Week 7 game against the Atlanta Falcons due to Achilles tendinitis. Multiple outlets report this is the first game he will miss with the team, and that head coach Kyle Shanahan expects the issue not to become long-term.

Coverage also describes Evans’ recent availability leading up to the matchup. An AP-backed report says Evans left the previous game early in the first half after a catch and then missed practice sessions, including all three practices before a Monday win against the Washington Commanders. Several Yahoo Sports updates add that Evans does not take part in Wednesday practice and remains out of practice during the week as the team manages his injury.

While the core injury information is consistent across reports, some outlets emphasize the timing (“days before” the Falcons game) or present the story as a “final decision.” One outlet also frames the situation as ongoing management after Evans exited the prior game early, rather than focusing solely on the game-day ruling.
