Watch: Josh Heupel Addresses Media During Open Week

Vols' head coach Josh Heupel met with the media on Wednesday for his lone bye-week press conference to discuss goals for his team before Kentucky

The Tennessee Volunteers football head coach Josh Heupel noted in his post-game press conference following the Alabama loss that this team desperately needed a bye-week to become healthier.

 

Fast forward to Wednesday, and Heupel has the same message. Though he did not provide any specific injury updates on the offensive line, Theo Jackson, etc., he stated that the roster is the thinnest he has ever coached due to injuries.
