With Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel, Demarcus Robinson, De’Zhaun Stribling, and more out with injuries, Cowing was asked to do more as a receiver in this one. He ran the third-most routes of any receiver, but did have more targets and catches than Brandin Cooks, who ran the most routes. Still, with the 49ers on bye next week and likely to be healthier when they return in Week 9, Cowing is not a recommended add on waiver wires.
