Tennessee RB Depth Piece Turned Special Teams Spark Plug
Fred Orr, a 5-11, 195-pound running back from Clarksville, TN, exploded for 1,420 rushing yards and 21 TDs in his 2017 senior HS season at Rossview, leading to two straight state playoff berths, before joining Tennessee. There, he's carved a niche as a special teams contributor, appearing in eight games as a sophomore in 2020 with no carries but gritty tackling and coverage; earned 2019-20 SEC Academic Honor Roll nods for his student-athlete balance. Compact, explosive build shines in short-yardage bursts—ideal backup RB for teams needing reliable depth, hustle, and locker-room intensity without ego.
