Tennessee can’t shake the injury bug. It’s been a consistent theme dating back to last season. Butch Jones announced more bad news today, ruling starters Cortez McDowell and Jauan Jennings out for the year.

Jennings was one of the most important players to Tennessee, but went down in the first half against Georgia Tech with a wrist injury. There was some hope that he could return later in the year, but Jones ruled him out for the year this morning.

Butch gave the same diagnosis for linebacker Cortez McDowell, who also has a wrist injury.
