KNOXVILLE — The University of Tennessee’s offense is actively searching for a quarterback.
The Volunteers’ defense has one, but he can’t lead them on the field in a full-contact situation.
“And it’s killing me,” middle linebacker Nick Reveiz said.
Reveiz, the 5-foot-9 son of former UT All-America kicker Fuad Reveiz, emerged from relative obscurity last season to become a starter and leader on the Vols’ defense. And former coordinator Monte Kiffin said the legacy was playing at an “All-SEC level” before tearing his ACL in a Sept. 26 win over Ohio.
