Projecting Tennessee Football’s Depth Chart Following Spring Practice

Tennessee football is nearly two weeks away from the end of its spring practice and has so far had a drama free spring portal period.

The transfer portal is still open for a few more days and Tennessee could lose more players to the portal or someone could hop in that the Vols could actively pursue. But for now, it’s been a quiet spring portal period for Tennessee.

So what does Tennessee football’s depth chart potentially look like after spring practice and losing one player in the two-deep to the transfer portal? Let’s take a shot at it here.
