The Tennessee Volunteers suffered a blow to their receiver depth earlier this week with what was initially reported as a broken collarbone for senior Josh Smith. Jimmy Hyams reported that the injury would sideline him for 4-8 weeks.

Now Hyams is reporting that Smith has a shoulder sprain.

UT WR Josh Smith has shoulder sprain - not broken collarbone - and expected to be out 4-5 weeks. Hopes to return for Florida game Sept. 16.

That’s obviously a win for Smith and Tennessee.
