KNOXVILLE — Cedric Tillman enters his redshirt sophomore season in 2020.
The 6-foot-3, 215-pound wide receiver has appeared in 15 games for the Vols over the last two seasons. He has totaled five receptions, 57 yards and scored one touchdown.
During the second week of fall training camp, Tennessee offensive coordinator discussed Tillman’s growth this offseason.
“He’s fine,” Chaney said of Tillman on a Zoom call with reporters. “He’s been battling a little hamstring early on, but he’s doing what he needs to do. Cedric’s a big, strong kid with strong hands.
“I feel like he should be a very productive player for us this fall. I’m pleased with Ced. The kids laugh, Ced is one of my favorites. Ced is my man. So, Ced and I are tight, and I get a kick out of our relationship. I like the young man. He’s getting better and better every day he walks out on the field.”
