There is a chance Evan Engram will play in his 16th game of this season on Sunday. He’s dealing with an ankle injury and has been limited in practices all week, but for a player who has dealt with health issues that have kept him from having a full season on the field so far in his career, just lining up against the Cowboys would be a major accomplishment. It would probably go much further in silencing his critics than the Pro Bowl nod he received last week.
Yet the tight end suggested on Thursday that the only thing that would top playing in 16 games this season would be playing in 17 or more.
