Josh Heupel comments on the Jaylen McCollough situation

On Sunday, one of Tennessee’s starting safeties was arrested on an aggravated assault charge. Jaylen McCollough, a mainstay in the Tennessee secondary over the past few seasons, was booked at the Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility.

This followed a physical altercation at an apartment complex, after a man mistakenly entered an apartment where McCollough was. The situation escalated from there.

Here’s the full description, per WBIR.

A warrant states that McCollough, of Austell, Ga., punched Zion Spencer, who said he mistakenly entered an apartment on Grand Avenue while McCollough was inside.

The man said he’d been drinking with friends that lived in the complex Sunday afternoon.
