San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans suffered a leg injury and walked to the locker room ahead of halftime with a member of the medical staff. Evans caught a 16-yard pass from Brock Purdy and went to the ground with it. He seemed to be in some pain and medical staff came out. A replay showed Evans trying to stretch his legs, specifically his right one, before walking off the field and to the locker room.
Evans has been on the injury report with rib issues, but had an Achilles injury added to start this week. It appears he aggravated something in his right leg.
