After the departure of three inside linebackers this season, Tennessee suddenly had a pretty big need at that position to fill in the class of 2020. Tonight, they took a step in the right direction.
Tennessee earned a commitment from four-star linebacker Bryson Eason late on Tuesday night. The 6-2, 250 pound prospect made things official with his announcement on Twitter.
Eason is out of Whitehaven High School in Memphis. He’s a four-star linebacker, ranking 348th overall in the 2020 class, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. Eason is the 11th ranked player in the state of Tennessee.
