So lately I've been wondering what exactly has happened to Lee Evans? Is it Edwards, the always changing offense schemes, the coaching staff, is he hurt or is it the contract extension?
Since Lee signed his contact extension last year, his production has waned tremendously.
In what would be 16 games, or a full season since his contract signing, he has only 3 100 yard games, coming against Arizona, Miami, and Kansas City. While two of them were playoff teams, they were ranked 22nd, 25th and 28th against the pass respectively.
Also, He only has 2 TDs, 59 receptions, and 833 yards, which averages to a little over 52 yards a game, since the contract extension. That would rank him below 40th in the league in yards per game since the extension. And as far as the rank in touchdowns among receivers, lets just say its sad when Johnnie Lee Higgins scores more than your number one receiver.
I've seen Lee play in 3 of the 4 games this year, and frankly it looks like he just doesnt care anymore, and i dont blame him for that. With this coaching staff I find it hard to believe that most of these guys till care.
But is it because of the coaching, or is he content with his contract that he realizes he can just sit back and get paid?
So I beg to ask the question, is lee evans worth the extension the team paid him? or has the team wasted more money yet again?
