Gerald Mincey Announces 2024 Return

Tennessee Volunteers offensive lineman Gerald Mincey announced his return to the 2024 team on Monday.

The Vols were expecting a mass exodus on the offensive line this offseason, but it's played out in the opposite manner. Starting left tackle John Campbell Jr. announced his intentions to return for 2024 a few days ago, and they now have another starting tackle returning to the fold.

Right tackle Gerald Mincey will be back for the 2024 season. He spent most of 2023 battling through injuries, but he was a difference-maker during his available snaps. His presence will be an added boost for a room that looks very strong as we continue the long roster preparation for next season.
