Josh Heupel discusses injuries for three Vols during fall camp

Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel discusses injuries for three Vols during fall camp.

Tennessee scrimmaged for the second time at Neyland Stadium during fall training camp on Wednesday.

The Vols will kick off its 2023 season on Sept. 2 versus Virginia at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee (noon EDT, ABC).

Following the Vols’ second scrimmage, third-year head coach Josh Heupel provided injury updates for three Tennessee student-athletes.

Heupel mentioned freshman running back DeSean Bishop “is not out for year, but will be out for an extended period of time, probably a couple of months.”

Freshman defensive lineman Tyree Weathersby will be out for the year.

Heupel also discussed senior offensive lineman Cooper Mays ahead of the Vols’ first game.

“We believe we’ll have an opportunity to have him back,” Heupel said. “Everything has gone well since he missed training camp and had the issue that he had. At the same time, and it’s true for every position but in particular the offensive line, you better have contingency plans.”
