Josh Heupel provides update on Squirrel White

Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel provides update on wide receiver Squirrel White.

No. 10 Tennessee (1-0, 0-0 SEC) defeated Virginia (0-1, 0-0 ACC), 49-13, during Week 1 at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.

Tennessee will next play Austin Peay on Saturday. Kickoff between the Vols and Governors is slated for 5 p.m. EDT and can be watched on SEC Network+.

Sophomore wide receiver Squirrel White left the game versus Virginia during the second half due to an apparent injury.

Third-year head coach Josh Heupel updated White’s status on Monday.

“With Squirrel, it was just the time of the game, that was the only reason that he was not back in the game,” Heupel said. “Feel like we’re in a good spot there.”

White led Tennessee in receptions (six) versus Virginia, while totaling 45 receiving yards.
