Tennessee DT Da'Jon Terry Enters NCAA Transfer Portal

Tennessee Volunteers defensive tackle Da'Jon Terry has entered the NCAA transfer portal.

Spring practices have wrapped up, and many players are back home enjoying time off before summer workouts. Players have now had a full practice period to see where they fit in with the team and what their 2023 role encompasses; some are content, while others across college football are entering the transfer portal and taking advantage of the second window.

Tennessee defensive tackle Da'Jon Terry is one of those players who found himself as an odd-man out. On3's Matt Zenitz reported that Terry entered the transfer portal on Friday afternoon. This is Terry's second time in the portal, as he spent the first two seasons of his career with the Kansas Jayhawks. He appeared in 34 games with the Vols, logging nine starts across his two seasons with the team. Terry became an important rotational piece in 2022, totaling 16 tackles and two sacks. He only has played football for five years and had one year of experience before signing a letter of intent to play at Kansas.

He stands 6-4 and 320 pounds with two seasons of SEC experience at 22 years old. It's hard to imagine that Terry won't have several Power-5 suitors rather quickly, especially with the need for defensive line depth across college football. Terry is a large human that can move well and has proven production at the Power-5 level; that's enough for someone to take a flyer on him and see what happens.
