Breaking: Top Tennessee player decides not to leave the team again, according to reports
On September 21, Tennessee will play its first SEC game against a new opponent in Oklahoma. One of the Volunteers’ defensive lineman, who was expected to use the transfer portal, will be sitting on the sidelines for that game.
According to a report that surfaced yesterday, Jayson Jenkins would access the portal.
Jayson Jenkins, a defensive lineman, was said to be planning to use the spring transfer portal to find a new college football home.
Despite playing in six games last season, Jenkins—a three-star recruit from the class of 2022—only registered four tackles.
Jenkins appeared to be leaving Knoxville and not coming back, but circumstances changed. He logged onto the portal twenty-four hours after the report was released.
