Episode 5
Graduate transfer wide receiver and return specialist Velus Jones Jr. is taking advantage of his free year of eligibility and is ready for his second season as a Vol. Velus finished the 2020 season ranking top three in receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns, and finished first in kickoff return yards for the Vols. Not only did he put up numbers for Tennessee, but he became a leader and used his experience to help Tennessee's young group of wideouts. This season, Jones Jr. is looking to continue to grow as a leader and compete in Coach Heupel's offense, which he describes as "a wide receiver's dream."
