## Resource

The 49ers just pulled off a bold move by signing Mike Evans to a $42M, 3-year deal — and it’s a game-changer. At 6’5” and 231 lbs, Evans brings rare size and elite route-running to Kyle Shanahan’s offense, turning him into a red-zone monster and a perfect fit for Brock Purdy’s tight-window throws. His proven ability to win contested catches, combined with his slot-targeting success under Liam Coen, makes him a perfect upgrade after a rough season. If he stays healthy, Evans could be the missing piece that elevates the 49ers’ passing game to elite status — especially alongside Kittle and McCaffrey.
