Tennessee Football: Which WRs Need to Step Up in Fall Camp?

When the Tennessee football team officially opens fall camp Tuesday, two talented wide receivers won't be among the Vols on the practice field.

As if the spotlight wasn't already burning a laser beam of scrutiny on a talented, but underachieving unit, it certainly will be as UT opens practice without senior starter Von Pearson and freshman prospect Preston Williams.

Vols coach Butch Jones confirmed their absences (both for an undetermined length of time) at Monday's press conference.

With a cloud of uncertainty hovering over the futures of Pearson and Williams, the Vols must prepare as if they'll be without them.
