RB Tiyon Evans ‘doubtful’ against Pittsburgh

Running back Tiyon Evans is reportedly doubtful to play in this weekend’s game against Pittsburgh, according to a few different sources.

The rumor has been going around on Twitter since early Thursday morning. Apparently John Brice asked Tennessee Head Coach Josh Heupel to comment on Evans’ status for this weekend’s game. Heupel apparently didn’t confirm or deny.

No. I said Heupel declined to say if Evans available v Pitt. I was asked about testing policies & said SEC established guidelines for both vaccinated & unvaccinated players. A vaxd player could conceivably test positive last weekend & be clear by Saturday https://t.
