The Tennessee Volunteers are scheduled to report for preseason football practice Tuesday, with the first workout set for Wednesday morning. A couple of veteran players will not be among them. Sixth-year senior tight end Austin Pope and fifth-year offensi ve lineman Riley Locklear have decided not to be a part of Josh Heupel's first season in Knoxville due to lingering medical issues. Pope underwent a second procedure for a herniated disc last summer that resulted in him sitting out last season, while Loc klear was banged up throughout last season and played very sparingly. - Chattanooga Times Free Press

Tennessee tight end Austin Pope has entered the NCAA transfer portal, a team spokesman confirmed Monday. Pope was a starter in 2019 but sat out all of this season after having preseason back surgery for a herniated disc. Pope, a senior, will have the opt ion to return next season thanks to an NCAA ruling that the 2020 season will not count against a player's eligibility. Entering the transfer portal does not require a player to transfer, but it is a first step that allows other coaches to contact the pla yer. The Christian Academy of Knoxville graduate entered this season as Tennessee's most experienced tight end. He has played in 33 career games, including 14 starts. He started 11 games last season. - Knoxville News Sentinel

The Christian Academy of Knoxville graduate is the most experienced of Tennessee's tight ends. He has played in 33 career games in his career, including 14 starts. Although not heavily involved in the passing game, Pope played an important role last season as a run blocker and in pass protection. - Knoxville News Sentinel

"I love this game, my teammates, and my coaches and I will do anything to help this program succeed," Pope wrote. "Prayers would be appreciated. Minor setback for a major comeback." The 6-foot-4, 235-pound redshirt senior has started 14 of his 33 career games and is primarily a run blocker. He had four catches for 21 yards last season. - AP College Footb all
