Detroit Lions
The most Vols in the NFL reside in Detroit.
The lone Tennessee Pro Bowler is Jalen Reeves-Maybin who made the list as a special teamer. Cameron Sutton has also emerged as a key piece of the defense.
Emmanuel Moseley began the year as a part of the defense but tore his ACL and is out for the year. Hendon Hooker is the backup quarterback who has recently been activated after his ACL tear.
San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers have one Vol on the roster.
Jauan Jennings has played a crucial role at wide receiver. With so many weapons on the offense, he has been mostly used as a blocker which is a role he's excelled in.
Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs starter at guard is Trey Smith. The offensive lineman has proven to be one of the best players in the draft despite sliding down the draft board.
Los Angeles Rams
The rookie who is off to the hottest start is Byron Young. With the Rams, he has been an elite pass rusher coming in second for sacks among rookies.

On the practice squad is John Kelly Jr. at running back.
