00:00Dr. Chow, it just came out here, Jay Glazer said, that Mike Evans is now expected to play.
00:04This was a guy who looked like he was in massive pain when he came off the field last week.
00:08I got to say, expected to play and playing well are two different scenarios.
00:12What's your take on how effective Mike Evans could be today for the 49ers,
00:16considering the short turnaround for this rib injury he's got?
00:20Well, I believe it's a rib cartilage fracture, which is more painful than rib bone, where he got hit.
00:28There's no internal organ damage.
00:30Mike Evans has a history of always trying to play through.
00:33So his trying to play through does not surprise me.
00:36But is he reduced more to red zone targets or modified?
00:41You're right.
00:42Playing is not necessarily 100%, especially with the deal where he has been, you know,
00:49the 49ers with their cluster injuries for their wide receivers.
