Tennessee kicked off spring practices March 22 under second-year head coach Josh Heupel.
The Vols scrimmaged for the first time Saturday.
Following Tennessee’s first scrimmage during spring practices, redshirt senior tight end Jacob Warren joined the show “Off the Hook Sports” with Dave Hooker.
“Spring ball is starting to develop and really get into the thick of it,” Warren said. “I think it was good to get out there, it was good to finally just be able to just play the game. Anytime in practice there’s always a limit to the number of plays that is in a certain series, or in a certain period, or you only get a certain number of reps in each drill, whatever it may be, so it’s cool to be able to just put the ball down and experience all the different situations that you practice throughout different practices.
“Whether it’s first down, whether it’s third and long, third and short, fourth down situations, you practice red zone situations — four minute drills, two minute drills. Everything like that you work on individually throughout practice comes to fruition in these scrimmages because we’re truly just playing ball. That was great to be able to do and we had great weather, so it was just a really good time being out there competing with each other.”
