Underclassmen, position switches add intrigue to Tennessee pro day

The University of Tennessee’s annual NFL Pro Day, the on-campus showcase of the football program’s outgoing, draft-eligible players, is slated for Monday boasting several players with intriguing components for next month’s three-day selection-fest in Arlington, TX.

Underclassmen tailback John Kelly Jr., defensive back Rashaan Gaulden and defensive tackle Kahlil McKenzie might have the most intrigue — and perhaps best opportunities — of seeing the Vols’ rich NFL Draft heritage continued next month.

Kelly Jr. impressed with his strength on the bench press last month at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, and both Gaulden and McKenzie each interviewed well with NFL personnel.
