Braylen Bedford Eyes Tennessee | Tennessee Volunteers Football News

Braylen Bedford, the top safety in Tennessee and 44th overall in the 2028 class, is heating up the recruiting scene with his elite coverage skills and special teams impact. Though he played his first game against Baylor without a win, he’s already locked in on Tennessee as a top contender — alongside Ole Miss, Oregon, Michigan, and Texas A&M. He’s building chemistry with current Vols Kesean Bowman and Kenneth Simon, who are pushing him to join them in Knoxville. Coach Josh Heupel is keeping it simple: stay healthy and keep dominating. Bedford’s also studying new defensive coordinator Jim Knowles’ system and plans to attend key games, especially the Texas showdown. While he’s not ready to commit yet, he’s leaning toward an official visit — and feels right at home with the Vols, calling them “family.” Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
