University of Tennessee safety Todd Kelly Jr. will honor the memory of slain Knoxville high school football player Zaevion Dobson by wearing his No. 24, Kelly said Monday.
Kelly, a junior who played against Dobson's older brother, Zack, previously wore No. 6.
Honored and privileged to wear the #24 this season in honor of Zaevion Dobson, your legacy lives on and will never be forgotten . . .
