Former Vols wide receiver Trey Weary entered the NCAA transfer portal earlier this month.
“First and foremost, I’m incredibly grateful to The University of Tennessee and the entire football program for an unforgettable four years,” wrote Weary. “Thank you to the coaches, strength staff, athletic training staff, equipment staff, and cafeteria staff for giving your all every day. Your commitment and care helped shape me as both a player and a man. To my teammates – thank you for the work, the memories, and the lifelong friendships. We pushed each other, showed up together, and the work paid off. I’m proud of what we accomplished. And to the best fan base in college football, IT’S GREAT TO BE A TENNESSEE VOL!!! As I prepare to graduate in Spring 2026, I’ve decided to enter the transfer portal, with one year of eligibility remaining.”
Weary, 6-2, 185 pounds, from Houston, TX, spent the first four seasons of his career at Tennessee.
The Texas native finished his career on Rocky Top with four receptions for 24 yards after joining the Vols as a walk-on in 2022.
Trey Weary didn’t go far to find his new home
Weary announced on Saturday via Instagram that he’s transferring to East Tennessee State.
Oddly enough, Weary’s lone catch in 2025 (which went for six yards) came in Tennessee’s 72-17 win over East Tennessee State.
Weary has one season of eligibility remaining.
