Brian Maurer has offered every Tennessee fan hope over these last three weeks. Unfortunately for everyone, he just hasn’t been able to stay on the field. Two concussions in two weeks have seemingly put his freshman season on hold, which is a disappointing development considering the energy that he’s brought to the offense.
Maurer landed on his head during a scramble against Mississippi State, which turned out to be his first concussion. A week later, Maurer battled back to start against Alabama, only to take a shot late in the first quarter that knocked him out again.
