Several former Tennessee players waived on NFL cut day
It was a tough day for many former Tennessee players on Saturday.
It was a tough day for many VFLs, as all 32 NFL teams cut their rosters to 53 players on Saturday.
Below is a list of every former Tennessee player that was waived, and the team that made the decision.
WR Jauan Jennings – San Francisco 49ers
DE Jonathan Kongbo – San Francisco 49ers
RB John Kelly – L.A. Rams
LB Daniel Bituli – L.A. Rams
TE Jason Croom – Buffalo Bills
S Nigel Warrior – Baltimore Ravens
TE Eli Wolf – Baltimore Ravens
QB Tyler Bray – Chicago Bears
DT Khalil McKenzie – Cincinnati Bengals
WR Josh Malone – New York Jets
TE Daniel Helm – New Orleans Saints
DT Daniel McCullers – Pittsburgh Steelers
QB Joshua Dobbs – Jacksonville Jaguars
Perhaps the most surprising of the players mentioned, was wide receiver Jauan Jennings. After being drafted in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL draft, Jennings had received high praise from the 49ers front office and coaching staff.
A few former Vols considered fringe players did receive good news on Saturday, as wide receiver Marquez Callaway was retained on the Saints’ 53-man roster. Quarterback Joshua Dobbs was also claimed off waivers by the Pittsburgh Steelers after being released by the Jaguars. Dobbs will return to the team that drafted him in 2017.

Three VFLs coaching high school hoops in Knoxville Area.
KNOXVILLE — Three area basketball coaches with University of Tennessee ties are sharing the game that they love with local high school student-athletes.
All three have been in the Knoxville Area’s prep sports scene for quite some time.
Two are Tennessee natives and one, who hails from the Midwest, stayed in Big Orange Country after his playing career on Rocky Top was over.
Anthony Anderson, Aaron Green and Jon Higgins are now teachers and coaches in East Tennessee.
Anderson, who played football for the Vols, is now the girls basketball coach at Austin-East High School.
He has coached the Lady Roadrunners since 2017. Anderson was in UT’s football program for five years and appeared in 39 games. He played mostly on special teams.
The 2007 Austin-East graduate, played football and basketball for the Roadrunners.
His roots with the school and East Knoxville Community run deep. At Austin-East, he replaced former Lady Vol Gwen Jackson.
Green, now the head boys coach at Oak Ridge High School, played basketball for the Volunteers from 1995-99 and later returned to Tennessee to work for Bruce Pearl as a graduate manager, video coordinator and information specialist.
He was also head coach at Cleveland High School in Tennessee from 2000-07.
Higgins, who once hit a half-court shot to help the Vols beat Georgia Tech, in Atlanta, is currently the boys basketball coach and head golf coach at Farragut High School.
He has been with the Admirals hoopsters since 2017 and has been the head golf coach since 2019.
Prior to going to Farragut, Higgins was the head coach at Knoxville Central High School, coaching the Bobcats for five seasons.
The native of Shaker Heights, Ohio, began coaching in Knoxville as an assistant under the legendary Jody Wright at Fulton High School.
