Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is out for the rest of the preseason with a hamstring injury.

Evans could return for Week 1, when the Buccaneers play the Tennessee Titans, head coach Lovie Smith said Tuesday.

Smith said the team will not rush Evans back from injury. Evans and the Buccaneers’ other starting wide receiver, Vincent Jackson, have battled muscle strains since Tampa Bay drafted Evans in the top 10 of the NFL draft last April.
