Byron Young is turning pro, but he will take part in the Orange Bowl next week against Clemson. Tennessee’s senior pass rusher officially declared for the 2023 NFL Draft on Thursday, as expected.
He also confirmed his intention to take one final ride with his teammates next week in Miami.
What a ride it has been. Thank you to Vol Nation for welcoming me with open arms to Rocky Top. From when I first stepped on campus, I made sure to give my all for Tennessee every single day and, thanks to the coaching of Coach Garner and Coach Heupel, I became the player and the man I am today.
