Football

According to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.football, the New Orleans Saints held a private workout with three Tennessee prospects.

James Pearce Jr.

Pearce Jr. is one of the top edge rushers in the 2025 draft. His performance last season was his best yet. According to ESPN, he gathered 38 total tackles, 7.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and one pass defended. Pearce Jr. was also named first team All-SEC in 2024. He is tied for tenth in school history with former volunteer Darrell Taylor, with 19.5 career sacks.

Will Brooks

A redshirt senior, Safety Will Brooks has been with the Tennessee Volunteers since 2020. And like Pearce Jr., 2024 was the best season of his career. He gathered 59 total tackles last season, along with five passes defended, four interceptions (one of which he returned for six), and one forced fumble, according to ESPN.

Omari Thomas

Omari Thomas has been a mainstay for the Volunteers ever since he stepped foot on campus in 2020. A team captain for four seasons, Thomas was also part of the 2024 NCAA Oversight committee, which are bodies within the NCAA responsible for overseeing specific areas of intercollegiate athletics, including regular season and championships administration, according to the school’s website.

In 2024, he gathered 23 total tackles, one sack, and four quarterback hurries.
