KNOXVILLE – Cameron Sutton’s football future almost certainly will include the NFL.

For now, the Tennessee cornerback’s focus is entirely on the present.

Once Sutton completes his junior season with the Volunteers, though, he very well may have a decision to make.

Either Sutton can jump to the NFL draft, where he could be selected in the first two rounds as one of the top cornerback prospects in college football, or return to Tennessee for his senior season and help the Vols take another step.

It could be a million-dollar decision, but Sutton indicated earlier this week he doesn’t expect he’ll even have a decision to make after this season.
