Tennessee capped its 2022 regular season on November 26 with a dominant 56-0 win over Vanderbilt. Now sitting at 10-2 on the year and ranked No. 6 in the final College Football Playoff Top 25, the Vols are gearing up for their Orange Bowl matchup against Clemson on December 30 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.

While Josh Heupel's club will be preparing for the postseason over the next few weeks, a number of Tennessee players will be entering their names into the NCAA Transfer Portal – and the Vols will also be exploring the portal for some potential additions to their roster.
