  08/06/21 - WR Dee BeckwithrJr/2025, Kentucky

  Tennessee redshirt freshman Dee Beckwith has been a running back for nearly a year now, and the plan is to keep it that way. The 6-foot-5, 227-pounder from Florence, Alabama, signed with the Volunteers as a three-star athlete prospect, and he worked last preseason at tight end, wide receiver and running back. His move to running back was at least partially due to low numbers at that position stemming from COVID-19 contact tracing, but that's where he resided last season and this spring.

"We have Dee at running back because we believe that he's a running back, and we want to see him progress," coach Josh Heupel said Wednesday during a news conference that followed his first August practice with the Vols. "I thought during spring ball that his last five practices were his best. He started to understand the principles and using his blockers in front of him, and he started to use his body as a true weapon. "He learned how to start playing with a little pad leverage, too, because he's a big, tall, long body back there." Beckwith made his debut on special teams last December against Florida in the Vols' eighth game of the season. His first two carries totaled 24 yards in the win at Vanderbilt, with the season finale against Texas A&M yielding one rush for 1 yard. - Chattanooga Times Free Press
