Jalin Hyatt will be remembered at Tennessee for a long, long time after putting together the 2022 season that he has.
On Saturday, during the Vols’ home game against Missouri, Hyatt officially crossed the 1,000-yard single-season receiving mark, vaulting him into the upper region of Tennessee’s all-time list.
According to a Tennessee representative, Hyatt now has the 10th 1,000-yard receiving season at Tennessee and is the ninth player to achieve that mark. Vol legend Joey Kent achieved that number twice in back-to-back years with Tennessee.
With his reception on the last drive, Tennessee WR Jalin Hyatt officially passes 1,000 yards this season.
It is the 10th 1,000 yard receiving season in school history, as Hyatt becomes the 9th UT player to do so.
