Buccaneers: 3 players who must step up following Mike Evans injury

Tyler Johnson

Tyler Johnson may not have even expected much playing time this weekend after struggling throughout Training Camp, but I definitely think we’ll see him on the field sooner rather than later with Evans’ injury.

That means the rookie has to step up and he needs to make an impact now.

Johnson has the body type and play-making ability to be a solid boundary option and to open up lanes for other receivers- if he proves to be a threat.

Having his talent, in combination with Godwin, could be a huge asset for Tampa Bay, especially if Evans is out.
