The University of Tennessee and head coach Josh Heupel added to its 2021 roster on Sunday.

Defensive lineman DaJon Terry announced he is transferring from Kansas to Tennessee.

The 6-foot-4, 320-pound Terry appeared in 10 games for the Jayhawks from 2019-20.

He totaled 16 tackles and two tackles for a loss.

The redshirt freshman played at Meridian High School in Meridian, Mississippi.

Terry entered the NCAA transfer portal on May 5 following the departure of former Kansas head coach Les Miles.

“I want to thank Coach Miles, the coaching staff and the University of Kansas for letting me play here,” Terry said. “With this being said, with talking to my family and thinking about my future, I have decided to enter the transfer portal.”

Tennessee will kick off the 2021 season on Sept. 4 against Bowling Green at Neyland Stadium.
