Nimrod arrived at Tennessee as a three-star prospect and No. 5 player in Arkansas in the Vols’ 2022 signing class.
He split time between the inside and outside in Tennessee’s receiving corps, totaling 29 career receptions for 319 yards and one touchdown.

Nimrod joins fellow receiver Kaleb Webb, running back Khalifa Keith, offensive lineman Vysen Lang, linebacker Jalen Smith, defensive back Jordan Matthews and walk-on quarterback Ryan Damron.
Nimrod will have two years of eligibility remaining. The current portal window closes on Dec. 28.
