For the second time in as many days, Tennessee football added another commitment to its 2026 class.

Tyson Bacon, a three-star strongside defensive end out of Hoover High School (Ala.) is the latest to pledge to the Vols, announcing his commitment to the program via Instagram on Monday, two days after being in attendance for Tennessee's 24-17 win over Alabama at Neyland Stadium.

Bacon joins four-star offensive lineman Brandon Anderson, who committed to Tennessee Sunday.

The 6-foot-4, 260-pound Bacon held a number of Power 4 offers, including LSU, Georgia Tech, Florida and Mississippi State, in addition to Tennessee.

The Vols offered the Alabama product back in April and he had taken numerous visits to Knoxville. Bacon was one of several prospects on campus for a major recruiting weekend for Tennessee, coinciding with its top 15 clash with Alabama.

That win, coupled with the atmosphere at Neyland Stadium evidently left an impression on the visitors.
