KNOXVILLE – Tennessee quarterback Tyler Bray left the practice field when the Volunteers concluded Tuesday morning’s practice with a brace on his right wrist and broken thumb.
The sophomore had his hard cast removed Monday, and he will not play in UT’s game at No. 8 Arkansas on Saturday.
“He doesn’t have his range of motion, and it’s about what we thought it would be,” Vols coach Derek Dooley said. “He’s right on track, sore and he’s got to get his range of motion back, get his strength back, that’s what he’s working on. Lot of rehab.
“I think he can do whatever he’s capable of doing. Right now, he’s not capable of doing much. I don’t think that’s as much the issue as just getting him out there where we could put him at risk. That’s the biggest concern.”
Bray’s status for the Vols’ home game against Vanderbilt on Nov. 19 is uncertain.
