Report: Nico Iamaleava to Be Qb1 for Tennessee vs. Georgia After Injury vs. Miss St.

Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Nico Iamaleava will reportedly be ready to go against the Georgia Bulldogs.

Chris Low of ESPN reported that the freshman quarterback will return to the lineup for the team's Week 12 matchup against Georgia. He had left the team's Week 11 victory over Mississippi State after suffering a head injury and entering concussion protocol.

He had been listed as questionable for the game but Low's report confirms that the Volunteers will be operating at full strength for the matchup against their SEC rival.

Iamaleava has thrown for 1,879 yards with 11 touchdowns and four interceptions while leading Tennessee to an 8-1 start to the season.
