KNOXVILLE — The orange sleeve protecting Justin Worley’s right elbow is more than a fashion statement.
It’s another small piece of protection Tennessee’s quarterback probably needs as he continues to lead the Volunteers from behind a young, inexperienced offensive line.
After suffering an elbow injury that knocked him out of three possessions in the second half of Saturday’s loss at Georgia, Worley has been sporting a padded orange sleeve on his throwing arm in practice this week and plans to wear it when Tennessee hosts Florida on Saturday afternoon.
“I think Nathan [Peterman] took worse hits than I did,” Worley said following Tuesday’s practice.
