Versatile Colorado-to-Tennessee transfer with subpackage value
Hardge is a compact, multi-use athlete whose value comes from versatility: he played both wide receiver and defense at Colorado, appearing in 23 games with one start at WR and 20 tackles on 113 defensive snaps before enrolling at Tennessee in January 2026 with two seasons of eligibility left.[3] His recruiting profile and 5'10", 71-rated EA Sports designation suggest a smaller but functional, athletic piece rather than a pure headline target, and his appeal is as a competitive depth player who can help on both sides of the ball and in special-purpose roles.[1][3]
