Tennessee suffered a significant blow to its defense on Monday as star EDGE rusher Tyree Weathersby will miss the remainder of the 2026 season with a knee injury, according to Austin Price of VolQuest.

Weathersby suffered the injury during Tennessee's 34-6 victory over Kentucky on Saturday and had to be helped off the field.

The senior defensive lineman leads the Volunteers with seven sacks and has recorded 20 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, and two fumble recoveries this season.

The news comes less than two weeks before Tennessee hosts LSU in Knoxville on Saturday, November 21.

Tennessee (7-2, 5-2 SEC) travels to Texas A&M this Saturday before returning home to face the Tigers.
