This coming season, Tennessee has worked hard to assemble a talented group of players on all sides of the ball. The coaching staff still has their sights set on big fish, even with the addition of Chris Brazzell, a wide receiver from Tulane, and Holden Staes, a tight end from Notre Dame.

Evan Stewart, a wide receiv

Evan Stewart

er for Texas A&M, has a long list of suitors after he logged into the transfer site. After accumulating 38 receptions, 514 yards, and four touchdowns in 2023, he is presently ranked as the portal’s top uncommitted talent. The best-ranked transfer weighs 175 pounds and is 6-0. According to the 247Sports Composite Rankings, he was the No. 11 overall player and a five-star prospect in the 2022 recruiting class.

 

Even though he is the standard size for a slot wideout, he still has excellent hands, outstanding speed, and physicality. Stewart was expected to travel to Tennessee on Thursday, according to J.D. PicKell of On3. With the former five-star prospect, Tennessee appears to be in a good situation, as they plan to host him for a visit in January. The universities of Oregon, Florida State, USC, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Florida State have all been mentioned. Many thought that Texas and Alabama were good choices, but On3’s Pete Nakos also disproved that.

Bru McCoy’s injury against South Carolina and Dont’e Thornton’s late-season injury meant that the Vols struggled mightily at wide receiver, even if they didn’t have the best season at the position. With Ramel Keyton’s departure, Chas Nimrod has taken on a significant role for the Volunteers and is anticipated to contribute significantly going forward.
