Ahead of the Music City Bowl, we got a rare, concrete injury update from Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel. Unfortunately, it wasn’t good news. Heupel ruled senior right tackle Cade Mays out for Thursday’s game against Purdue.
Heupel said earlier in the week that Mays was pushing to play, but clearly that foot isn’t ready to go.
