Vols Showcase Depth Without QB | Tennessee Volunteers Football News

Tennessee’s skipping the quarterback spotlight at SEC Media Days — but that’s not a surprise, with the starting job still up for grabs between George MacIntyre and Faizon Brandon. Instead, they’re sending standout linebackers Arion Carter and Jeremiah Telander, plus breakout running back DeSean Bishop, to represent the Vols. Carter’s had a wild ride — opting out, declaring for the draft, then returning for his senior year — while Telander finished second in tackles. Bishop, the walk-on who turned into a 1,000-yard rusher with 16 TDs, earned All-SEC honors and was a Burlsworth Trophy finalist. With the QB battle still brewing, Tennessee’s smartly showcasing its depth and leadership through proven performers as they head to Tampa for the big event.
