He was initially projected as potentially being a third Tennessee football pick in the NFL Draft. Then, after the draft was over and Daniel Bituli was not taken like Darrell Taylor and Jauan Jennings, he didn’t even get a deal as an undrafted free agent the way Marquez Callaway, Dominick Wood-Anderson and Nigel Warrior did.
Sunday came and went, and he still didn’t have his name called, and then Wes Rucker of GoVols247 reported the issue late that night. Bituli was waiting to be cleared medically after dealing with an injury.
Well, it looks like he’s been cleared, and on Wednesday, Bituli became the sixth Tennessee football player to land with a team.
