Lee Evans hopes to play again this season

[Mr. Miyagi]

Ravens receiver Lee Evans, who has been dealing for weeks with an ankle injury, has provided an ominous assessment of his short-term status.
Per Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times, Evans said he hopes to play again this season. Which implies that his return could still be weeks away.

That 4th rounder we got for him isn't looking so bad now.

Who knows if he would have gotten injured if we kept him?

One of the few ex-Bills I will always root for.

It is but it isn't. I mean that 4th Rounder has yet to produce anything for the Bills where one could argue despite only playing only 1 game Lee has produced something for the Ravens.

One of the few ex-Bills I will always root for.

Why? He gave up on this team but was smart enough not to tell the media about it? I'll respect Evans' play and admit having his jersey but in the same vein he was a one trick pony and will always compare him to Terry Glenn.

He gave up? First time I'm hearing this.

Re: Lee Evans hopes to play again this season

Small-ish receivers relying on speed and over 30, Geez, why did he get hurt and taking long time to heal now?

I know there are exceptions, but if you are running a team, you go with the odds that maximize your team.

On a separate note, I'm still concerned about Jackson at the rate we are using him. He IS the best offensive player we have without question though ...

I might be in the minority but I think we'd be a better team right now with Lee on the team. Donald Jones is a POS.

I think we'd be a better team too but don't think Donald is a POS

Lee never publicly said he gave up but over the course of time he appeared to become more disinterested and and my guess is he mentally checked out on the team and the Bills organization

Evans was a quality person, and I enjoyed his time here as a Bill..

I don't miss him though.

Jones' is a solid depth WR and might develop into the #2 role we've been putting him at in a year or two. David Nelson is also developing nicely to as but what this team does lack a legimate threat not named Stevie in the passing game. Lee Evans wasn't this type either as he's like Jones in great on deep routes but not a guy that could throw to on every 3rd down and expect to keep a drive alive which Stevie can do for the most part. As good as Chandler's been in the redzone if we could find or a quality move the chains/3rd down weapon TE like a Rob Gronkowski/Jason Witten this team could be scary good on offense.

Re: Lee Evans hopes to play again this season

I love Lee but being 4-2 kind of takes the sting out of that trade.

Will always be one of my favorite, pure class act.

well hes not very good, lets put it that way. The NE game was the only day he had done much of anything.

how was he disinterested? He was there for their unofficial OTa's. Even his teammates reacted in a favorable way to Lee when he got traded. I think you guys are making assumptions just because he's no longer a bill.

too early IMo to say he's a POS. I dont think anyone would have really had great nos. because Fitz likes to spread the ball around and lets face it, Fitz isn't a great deep throw qb. It's to Fitz's advantage if he has a wr who is big and can jump for balls since he's not acurate with the deep ball.
