Enough with the negatives. Let’s talk about John Kelly. Tennessee’s workhorse was spectacular against the Florida Gators, proving to be the one constant for the Vols. Kelly ran for 141 yards on 19 carries and caught 6 passes for an additional 96 yards.
He was the Tennessee offense.
Pro Football Focus took notice. They credited him with forcing 15 missed tackles against Florida alone. 15!
Perhaps lost in the dramatics of Florida-Tennesse, was RB John Kelly's strong performance: https://t.co/FasRiedErV pic.twitter.com/4xuqlYWLuw
