The Vols received a blow to their secondary last week when Jourdan Thomas went down with a knee injury that ended his season. In the past, this injury would be a devastating blow to a thin group that already wasn't super talented. This year is different.
Tennessee started fall camp this week to the thrill of Vol Nation, and the team is looking deeper than ever, at least according to Josh Heupel. With more guys who can contribute on the 2-deep, it's time to take a look at who could have a breakout season.
