Tennessee defensive lineman Kellen Lindstrom is planning to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, per Mike Shafer via Allen Trieu.

Lindstrom played high school football at Glendale (Springfield, MO), where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 319 overall recruit in the 2024 cycle, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking, a weighted algorithm that complies all major recruiting media services.

He’s the second defensive lineman to enter the portal for Tennessee on Monday. His teammate Jamal Wallace also plans to enter. In two seasons at Tennessee, Wallace played in just nine games over the course of two years. He had seven total tackles when he saw the field.

Lindstrom is the latest player to enter the portal, with likely more to come in and out of Tennessee. Head coach Josh Heupel addressed what the offseason will bring following a season-ending loss to Vanderbilt.

“This (game) just wrapped up a few seconds ago,” Heupel said. “It’s my job to evaluate everything inside of our program and, you know, I told our players we’ve had some disappointing results, but the second half was extremely disappointing. Coaches and players, not just one.”

Heupel was also asked Saturday night what the coming days will look like for the Tennessee coaching staff as the Vols await their bowl game destination: “We’ll have a chance to meet with our guys and move forward as a program,” he said, “and revisit the season and look backwards before we look forwards, too.”
