Tennessee Players Change Uniform Numbers To Honor Injured Teammates

As the injury bug continues to strike the Tennessee Volunteers football team, members of the squad are doing what they can to honor their fallen teammates:

A pair of Vols are honoring their teammates who are lost for the season due to injury by changing their uniform numbers to their injured mates’ numerals. Sophomore offensive lineman Jashon Robertson wore Marcus Jackson’s No. 75 for the first time on Saturday as a tribute, which Butch Jones had mentioned earlier in camp.

Junior defensive back Cameron Sutton was decked out in No. 7 on Saturday as he honored sophomore Rashaan Gaulden, who will miss the season with a foot injury.
