A teammate of one of the Tennessee Vols' top transfer targets entered the NCAA transfer portal on Tuesday. 

Tulane wide receiver Chris Brazzell took a visit to Tennessee this week after recently entering the transfer portal. The 6-foot-5 wide receiver is a player the Vols would love to have after he caught 44 passes for 711 yards and five touchdowns in 2023. 

Tennessee also needs a tight end. And while there are several transfer targets on their radar, they haven't landed a commitment from a tight end yet. 

On Tuesday, Tulane tight end Alex Bauman, Brazzell's teammate, entered the NCAA transfer portal. 

Bauman is a former three-star recruit from New Jersey who was also recruited as an edge rusher. His brother is a tight end at Notre Dame (he missed the 2023 season with a torn ACL). 

Bauman caught the game-winning touchdown in the Cotton Bowl against USC last season. 

It's unclear if Tennessee will have any interest in Bauman, but perhaps they could land Brazzell and Bauman as a package deal. The Vols certainly have a big need at both positions.
