Derek Barnett did not participate in Sunday’s drills due to a virus, according to reports from NFL analyst Adam Schefter. It’s possible, however, that he could participate in Sunday’s workouts.
Tennessee DE Derek Barnett, considered a first-round pick, is sick and will not participate in drills today, per sources.

A big day for all our Vols 🙂
Not sure who was the announcer. I think it was Charles Davis(?). But about 3-4 DL run 40s and he starts talking about spanking Miami and Michael Irvin in the 86 Sugar Bowl 35-7. LOL
