The injury bug has apparently bitten Tennessee's Josh Smith once again.

WNML Sports Radio's Jimmy Hyams reported on Twitter Sunday evening that the redshirt senior slot receiver will miss 4-8 weeks with an "apparent broken collarbone."

Tennessee's practice on Sunday was closed to media. A Tennessee spokesperson did not comment on the report when reached by GoVols247 via text message.

The Vols are scheduled to have a practice open to media at 10 a.m. Monday, with head coach Butch Jones and select players speaking to reporters after practice.

The 6-foot-1, 206-pound Smith, a Knoxville native and product of Christian Academy of Knoxville, has 58 catches for 721 yards and five touchdowns over the last four seasons.

He missed six games each of the last two seasons due to injury, missed seven games as a freshman in 2013 and underwent ankle surgery in 2014 that cost him his sophomore season. Smith had groin surgery in January.

According to Hyams, Smith will have additional tests on the injured shoulder on Monday.
