Tennessee freshman running back Cody Brown has entered the NCAA transfer portal.
He announced his decision on Wednesday.
“Thank you to the Tennessee coaches and staff that recruited me and made me a part of their family,” Brown said on Twitter. “Most of all thank you Vol nation for the support and love you have given me throughout my commitment.
“After a lot of of thought and consideration, my family and I have decided that it would be best for me to reevaluate my options and put my name into the transfer portal. Please respect my decision.”
