The Tennessee Volunteers will reportedly lose another talented player to the transfer portal.

On Thursday, starting offensive lineman Gerald Mincey announced his intention to enter the portal.

Thank you Coach Heupel and all the Tennessee coaches and staff for all the support over the last 2 years.

I will be forever gratefulMincey arrived in Tennessee following the 2021 season from the Florida Gators.

In his first season in Knoxville, Mincey started 7 games at left tackle and played in 9. In 2023, Mincey moved to the right side and started 6 games.

The tackle has dealt with injuries along the way, but has been a solid starter for much of the season.

Talented edge rusher Tyler Baron and offensive linemen Mo Clipper Jr. and Addison Nichols are also out.

The Vols will likely look to the portal to look for a replacement for Mincey. Dayne Davis is currently the only player on the roster with experience at right tackle.

Four-star prospect Bennett Warren will be on campus soon, but the team is unlikely to throw a freshman straight into the fire.
