Evans, who was limited by a hamstring issue during the Bucs' offseason practices, expects to be fine for the start of training camp, the Tampa Bay Times reports. "Physically, I'm not in tip-top shape. I'm getting back into my game shape," Evans noted. "As far as injury-wise, I feel good. I've been running, and I feel 100 percent."

Analysis:

Now that he is past his hamstring woes, Evans indicated that his focus has turned to dropping "7 to 10 pounds," with a goal of playing at about 230 pounds this season. The rookie wideout is on track to start for the Bucs as a rookie opposite Vincent Jackson, and with his 6-5 frame, it's not hard to imagine Evans making an immediate red zone impact in the team's offense.
