Big Orange Nation was rocked with devastating news to begin this week. Former Tennessee football defensive lineman Parys Haralson, who played for the Vols from 2002 to 2005, has passed away at age 37.
Haralson’s death was initially revealed by the San Francisco 49ers, where he played in the NFL from 2006 to 2012. He also played for the New Orleans Saints in 2013 and 2014. His death is tragic not just because he was a great player but because he was also a great leader and person.
