Wide receivers Jauan Jennings (15) and Vincent Perry (10) wait for passes from quarterbacks Quinten Dormady (left) and Josh Dobbs (right) during Tennessee’s practice at Neyland Stadium on April 2, 2016.KNOXVILLE – Continuing what’s become a weekly occurrence the past few weeks, Tennessee football coach Butch Jones confirmed two more injury losses after a Tuesday spring practice.
The Volunteers will be without wide receivers Jauan Jennings and Vincent Perry for what’s left of the spring due to undisclosed injuries.
Those losses, plus the absence of Josh Smith, who’s expected to be available for Saturday’s Orange & White Game, left Tennessee with three available scholarship wide receivers Tuesday and made it even more difficult for the passing game to move forward.
“Different guys and different timing will always make it tough,” quarterback Josh Dobbs said after practice, “but you always get good fundamental work.”
