Tennessee practiced for the ninth time Thursday during fall training camp at Haslam Field ahead of the 2022 season.
Following Thursday’s practice, first-year wide receivers coach Kelsey Pope met with media.
Pope discussed sophomore wide receiver Walker Merrill during fall training camp.
“Walker has had a really good camp,” Pope said. “Last spring, he had a knee injury that he had to work through, so he was just working back at camp. He has been really good. He plays harder than anyone on the field, so he is always going to give himself a chance to be successful.”
Merrill appeared in 10 games for Tennessee in 2021. He totaled five receptions for 52 yards last season.
