Big-bodied Tennessee back with SEC pedigree, but limited recent production
Whitehead, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound running back, brings a powerful frame and physical downhill style that made him a notable recruit and a useful depth option for Tennessee. The catch: his college career has been derailed by injuries and limited availability, so he’s more of a “high-upside if healthy” fit than a proven every-down producer. In 2021, he logged 32 carries for 207 yards and 2 touchdowns at Georgia, showing efficient burst in a small sample, but teams should view him as a developmental, toughness-first runner rather than a finished product.
