Quick answer
Buy lowEvans had 12 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB132 through 3 games. Current rank is DB132 through 3 games — DB297 was the last finished season. Played a short 2025 (7 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
