Following a scare last weekend against Kentucky, Tennessee tight end DaSaahn Brame appears ready to give it a go this weekend in College Station. Brame, who has become a very important piece of Tennessee’s offensive puzzle since Ethan Davis was lost for the season, experienced concussion-like symptoms following a hard fall in the endzone last Saturday night.
Brame did not appear on Tennessee’s injury report on Wednesday night, signaling the tight end would be good to go against Texas A&M on Saturday.
According to Volquest, Brame is set to travel with the team this weekend.
Maybe it’s not exactly how we all envisioned Brame making an impact this season, but the 6-5, 240 pound tight end has been a huge part of the Tennessee rushing attack this season. Spending a lot of time as a lead blocker, Brame has made his money in the Vols’ jumbo formations — he’s even scored twice on the ground.
Brame has 15 catches for 184 yards on the season. That number could be higher if not for penalties and a questionable call from the officials last weekend against Kentucky.
Tennessee would turn to Trent Thomas and Luca Wolf should Brame suffer any sort of setback, which is always a possibility with concussion-like symptoms. For now though, signs point towards Brame being able to go on Saturday.
Kickoff between Tennessee and Texas A&M is set for 3 p.m. ET on ESPN.
