Heupel provides update on Tennessee’s Cedric Tillman following procedure
is currently down its top receiver in Cedric Tillman. The Vols’ leading receiver in 2021 has missed multiple weeks with an ankle injury and recently had a “tightrope” procedure to expedite his recovery. Following the small surgery, Tillman is back to moving around and may be getting close to a return.
At his Monday press conference this week, Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel addressed Tillman and his timetable for a return:
“He was limited but moved around a little bit today. We will see where he’s at. He had the surgery to speed up the recovery process,” Josh Heupel shared on the star wideout. Then added that “Tillman has to show this week he can be a functional player in order to get on the field.”
