Tennessee football freshman cornerback Kaleb Beasley, a former Lipscomb Academy standout, will miss the remainder of spring practice after suffering a fractured fibula on Thursday.
Beasley’s father, Terrio, posted news of the injury on his personal Facebook page, and UT confirmed it.
Beasley had just arrived on campus. He and former Lipscomb teammate Edwin Spillman enrolled at UT on Monday, taking a unique path to early enrollment at the midpoint of the spring semester in order to participate in spring practice.
This was only the third workout of spring practice for the Vols.
Beasley, a former four-star prospect, was a two-time finalist for the Tennessee Mr. Football award. Tennessee beat out Notre Dame, LSU, Clemson and Oklahoma to snag him.
