{"id":2469,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/2469","headline":"49ers rule out Mike Evans for Cowboys game","dek":"Left tackle Trent Williams and linebacker Dre Greenlaw are listed as questionable for Sunday's trip to Dallas.","body":"Mike Evans will not play Sunday when the 49ers visit the Cowboys, the team has confirmed, even as coach Kyle Shanahan says the receiver is trending in the right direction.\n\nShanahan said Evans is getting better and the team wants to make sure he fully heals before putting him back on the field, which suggests this is more about caution than a setback. Either way, San Francisco will be without him against Dallas.\n\nEvans isn't the only name on the injury report. Left tackle Trent Williams and linebacker Dre Greenlaw are both listed as questionable, leaving some uncertainty about the 49ers' lineup along the offensive line and at linebacker heading into the weekend.\n\nNo further details on the severity of Evans' injury or a target return date have been given. For now, San Francisco will have to navigate the Cowboys game without one of its receivers, while keeping an eye on whether Williams and Greenlaw are able to suit up.","published_at":"2026-11-14T23:35:28.148707+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Kyle Shanahan: Mike Evans is getting better, we're trying to make sure he fully heals","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/kyle-shanahan-mike-evans-getting-135329061.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Kyle Shanahan: Mike Evans is getting better, we're trying to make sure he fully heals","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/kyle-shanahan-mike-evans-is-getting-better-were-trying-to-make-sure-he-fully-heals"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"49ers OT Williams, LB Greenlaw questionable, WR Evans out vs. Cowboys","url":"https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/50475033/49ers-williams-greenlaw-questionable-evans-vs-cowboys"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"‘There’s a chance’ Mike Evans can return to the 49ers next week","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/chance-mike-evans-return-49ers-221203571.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Fantasy Football Injury Impact: Mike Evans OUT for Week 10 Gives Huge Value Boost for Keenan Allen and Deebo Samuel","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/fantasy-football-injury-impact-mike-225006722.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"49ers’ Mike Evans headlines majorly mixed bag injury report vs. Cowboys","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/49ers-mike-evans-headlines-majorly-234234822.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Pair of 49ers stars suddenly questionable for Cowboys game after practice injuries","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/pair-49ers-stars-suddenly-questionable-230358707.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"49ers’ Kyle Shanahan assures fans Mike Evans is ‘going in the right direction’","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/49ers-kyle-shanahan-assures-fans-034849152.html"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"49ers provide encouraging injury update on Mike Evans","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/11/14/sports/49ers-injury-update-mike-evans-cowboys/"}],"image":{"url":"https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/f77f2f5fef9872b0c3d96cb5db56280cd2bbaca9eb487d52a30af6bbefee5eee/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200_h675%3Bquality_80%3Bformat_webp/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Fprofootballtalk.nbcsports.com%2F30f9251432644dce83a9e1a95045e4d1.jpg","credit":"Yahoo Sports","width":1200},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
