One day after breaking his leg, Greg Emerson announced his commitment to the University of Tennessee.

Emerson, who's preparing for his senior season at North Side High School in Jackson and is now recovering from a dislocated ankle and fractured fibula, made an appearance on NFL Network's All Access Monday evening.
