Kamal Hadden To Have Season-Ending Surgery For Tennessee Football
Tennessee received some pretty bad news today, as one of their top players is getting season-ending surgery. That player is cornerback Kamal Hadden.
Kamal Hadden is a redshirt senior who has been putting up an impressive season up to this point. He was statistically ranked inside the top 5 in many people's eyes. He had three interceptions and seven pass deflections throughout seven games.
He got injured in the Alabama game with a shoulder injury after attempting to tackle an Alabama player early on in the game. He didn't go into the injury tent until later on after the crimson tide scored, and he was visibly frustrated. Hadden returned in the third quarter, but that did not stand for long as he exited the game permanently later on.
The talented corner announced earlier today that he would be entering surgery, ultimately ending his season earlier this morning. A big question for the Volunteer corner is: where will he go next? Time will tell, considering this year was his final year of eligibility this season. Hadden took to Instagram by saying, "The get-back starts now." It is safe to say that the redshirt senior corner will be missed in orange and white, but all of Vol Nation will come together and support him through this tough time, considering he was becoming one of the fan favorites on the team for many. Best of luck to Kamal Hadden.
