Kyle Shanahan updates on Mike Evans ahead of Seahawks matchup

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan provided an injury update on Mike Evans ahead of the Week 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks. Evans played through a rib injury during the 49ers' 24-14 win over the Denver Broncos, catching five passes for 76 yards. Shanahan indicated that Evans did not suffer any setbacks from the game and is expected to perform better against Seattle. This news is encouraging given that Evans was previously uncertain to play due to his injury, having returned to practice on a limited basis before the Denver game. The 49ers, who are 4-0 and leading the NFC West, are also managing injuries to other players, including fullback Kyle Juszczyk and defensive back Marques Sigle.
