Projecting Tennessee Football’s Depth Chart Ahead Of Fall Camp

Football season is coming.

Tennessee players report back to campus Tuesday where Josh Heupel and his coordinators will meet with the local media as part of the Vols’ in house media day.

Tennessee opens fall practice on Wednesday and will have full pads on by the start of next week. There’s plenty of position battles brewing this fall camp most notably in the Tennessee secondary and at the two offensive tackle spots.
