Will Mike Evans Bets Be Refunded After Injury During 49ers vs. Dolphins?

UPDATE: Mike Evans is questionable to return with a hip injury. Because he exited in the second half, eligible wagers would require Early Exit+ protection if he does not return. DraftKings has not yet announced an Early Exit+ ruling.


San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans exited Sunday’s Week 2 game against the Miami Dolphins in the third quarter with a hip injury. The team listed Evans as questionable to return, and there has been no official word on whether he will re enter the game.

Before exiting, Evans caught all three of his targets for 54 yards.

Will Mike Evans bets be refunded?

Because Evans exited during the second half, standard Early Exit protection does not apply. Eligible wagers with Early Exit+ protection may be covered if Evans does not return, but DraftKings has not yet announced a ruling on Evans’ bets.

Early Exit+ extends injury protection through the full game on eligible wagers. For Week 2, DraftKings made Early Exit+ available at no additional cost. If DraftKings confirms Evans is covered, qualifying single bets would be settled as void, with the original stake returned. In qualifying parlays and Same Game Parlays, the Evans selection would be voided and the wager recalculated using the remaining legs.
