Top Gambling News: FanDuel Gets Back on Track Following Extensive Downtime, Then Mike Evans Happened

While many customers were angry with FanDuel being down much of the day Monday, the company deserves credit for keeping everyone informed with regular updates on X. Scroll down for all the latest headlines from the world of gambling and sports as well as our top trending stories and searches.

FanDuel Support posted just prior to 8 pm ET Monday that much of the service had been restored.

"Service has been restored in MA. We appreciate your patience. We're aware customers located in CT, NJ, NY, PA and PR are still experiencing issues that may extend through MNF."

FanDuel alluded to their site being impacted by a worldwide outage with an external cloud provider that brought down many webistes Monday. This story received extensive coverage and FanDuel found itself trending on X during the afternoon hours. 

FanDuel probably was hoping they were still down through Monday night's NFL games. 

By Monday night, many customers were bashing the site for not voiding Bucs Mike Evans player props after he went down in the second quarter. So in other words, things are back to normal. 

Evans was carted to the locker room during Monday's loss to the Detroit Lions after suffering a concussion and what was announced as a shoulder injury that led to him quickly being ruled out of the game.

And getting back to FanDuel, they were hardly alone when it came to going down in recent days. Prediction market site Kalshi crashed for two hours Saturday during college football.

It should come as little surprise that FanDuel's downtime was the biggest story of the day bar none Monday, and the proof is in our own numbers here at Gambling911.com. Scroll down to check those out.
