From @Hunter.DeNote:

For the final time ahead of the 2023 football season, media was allowed to view a portion of Tennessee's practice.

Here is my notebook:

- Cooper Mays still absent
- Gabe Jeudy-Lally is no longer in a red jersey
- Jackson Locke was stretching with the team but didn't wear pads
- Jourdan Thomas, Omarr Norman-Lott, Christian Charles, Mekhi Bigelow and Dylan Sampson spent extra time stretching
- Sampson is "a little banged up" but will be fine
- Eagles, Bengals, Browns, Jaguars scouts in attendance

Andre Turrentine and Jeudy-Lally transferred to Tennessee looking for new starts.

Now the two are fitting into what is expected to be an improved Vols' secondary.

Came up with a late interception to set up the game-winning FG in the Saints preseason game vs Chiefs tonight.

Brings back memories. When I was a student in 2018 at the Alabama game he intercepted Jalen Hurts and everyone got a free chicken sandwich from Chick-Fil-a.

- Tyler Baron and Omarr Norman-Lott spent extra time stretching
- Cameron Seldon had a club on his right hand
- Charlie Browder made the catch of the day on a great one-handed grab
- Jack Jancek was very impressive
- Christian Harrison stands out as one of the better young defensive backs
