He definitely has the receiving ability.
It's unfortunate he's had such terrible rushing production in preseason, but a lot of that is from defenders getting to him behind the LOS.
i think evans will get some touches on 3rd down but he has to show he has improved blocking since sometimes plays change and RB gets moved back for protection. Also for running, he has good explosiveness on the edges from what Ive seen but his between the tackles is a bit lacking on short yardage.. Perine is better in the blocking and short yardage but i could see Evans getting a few more touches though especially if he approves it above areas as the season goes on.
