Tennessee scrimmaged for the second time during spring practices Saturday at Haslam Field.
Following the Vols’ scrimmage, head coach Josh Heupel discussed development within Tennessee’s running backs unit.
“More opportunities for young guys in your program,” Heupel said. “Len’Neth Whitehead, a healthy offseason, it’s shown in what he’s done to his body. He continuing to get a ton more reps. I think he’s making a lot of strides as far as a running back in pass protection, in understanding schemes, how to deliver blocks and play better with pad-under-pad on the backend of it.
“Justin Williams-Thomas, I thought, had his best day today, without watching the video. Just in the speed, tempo and urgency that he played in. I liked a lot of what I saw today.”
