Tennessee fans love their former Vols, so lets take a look at how they performed in Week 5 of the NFL season.
With six players drafted in the 2017 NFL Draft, the contingent of former Vols in the league grew significantly. Let’s take a look at how former Tennessee stars performed during Week 5 of the NFL season.
