Freshman Cameron Miller took part in his first fall training camp practice at Tennessee.

The 6-foot-1, 206-pound Miller came to Tennessee as a wide receiver.

Second-year head coach Josh Heupel discussed Miller following Monday’s practice.

“From the time that we recruited him, viewed him as a football player,” Heupel said of Miller’s ability to play multiple positions. “That’s how he views himself, too. He doesn’t really care what he’s playing. As we got through spring ball, it just felt like him, his skillset, opportunity to compete and make an impact was probably on the other side of the football here the earliest.

“His attitude and want to are unquestioned by anybody, players in the locker room and our staff. We’re excited to see him grow here during the course of training camp. It’s his first time playing that position. A lot of things are happening. It’s different, but he has been really diligent in the building. He spent a bunch of extra time this summer learning what we’re doing schematically.”
