A few things haven’t played out like we thought so far in Tennessee’s 2023 football season, one of which being the emergence of wide receiver Dont’e Thornton. The big-bodied speedster who transferred in from Oregon seemed like a natural fit in the Tennessee offense, but injuries have plagued his progress so far in Knoxville.
Thornton missed the South Carolina game and played sparingly against Texas A&M last weekend. This following time that he missed in both spring and fall camps.
Tennessee could certainly use him, especially now with Bru McCoy sidelined for the rest of the year.
