  Vanderbilt junior linebacker Dimitri Moore has opted back into the 2020 season after initially opting out over COVID-19 concerns at the beginning of preseason practice. Moore is the team's leading tackler, an NFL Draft prospect and a Butkus Award candidate. His return means Vanderbilt will bring back all 11 defensive starters from last season if no other players opt out. On Instagram Tuesday, Moore said he opted out after his grandfather's death from COVID-19, but time and more information changed his mind.

"After my grandfather's passing from COVID-19, I made a decision to opt out of the upcoming football season," Moore posted on Instagram. "Since then, I have done more research and had many conversations with doctors and medical personnel. I look forward to returning to the program and playing this season, and I have made this decision on my own. "As a team, we are responsible for our actions and hold each other accountable within our environment. I have trust and confidence in Vanderbilt's testing abilities and safety protocols." Vanderbilt preseason practice has been paused since Friday after multiple players tested positive for COVID-19, so Moore missed only four practices. Vanderbilt has not announced when it will return to practice. Media availability with coaches and players via Zoom calls also have been postponed. - Tennessean
