Tennessee gets the bad news that fans were fearing after the Vols’ win over Kentucky
The Tennessee Volunteers received some very unfortunate news on Monday.
Tennessee fans unfortunately received the bad news they were expecting on Monday morning.
VolQuest’s Austin Price reported on Monday morning that Tennessee defensive lineman Tyree Weathersby will miss the rest of the season after suffering a torn ACL in the Vols’ win over Kentucky.
Price reported that Weathersby will undergo surgery for the injury.
Fans were concerned after Weathersby had to be helped off the field and couldn’t put any weight on his injured leg late in the game against Kentucky.
The Georgia native was having a heck of a season for the Volunteers. Weathersby leads Tennessee with seven sacks, which is third in the SEC.
Weathersby is a senior, but he has a season of eligibility remaining. He appeared destined for the NFL after this season, but the ACL injury could cause him to reconsider his options for the 2027 season.
