Despite choosing not to participate in the Citrus Bowl, Joe Milton is still playing a significant role for the Vols this week.
However, Milton hasn’t officially departed the Tennessee football program merely because he’s choosing not to play in the Citrus Bowl.
Milton is actually still contributing to the Vols this week in a big way. Austin Price of VolQuest reports that Milton is in Orlando this week, where he’s attending offensive meetings with the team.
Nico possesses extraordinary talent. He is the kind of quarterback who has the potential to win the Heisman Trophy in the future. However, he hasn’t kicked off a college football game before. This week, as he helps Nico get ready for his first college start, Milton’s experience will be quite helpful.
During his time at Tennessee, Milton has always put the needs of the team first. And just because he chose not to participate in the Citrus Bowl doesn’t mean that will end this week.
