Defensive back Wesley Walker, a notable contributor for the Tennessee Vols in 2022 and 2023, made waves as he entered the transfer portal during a significant reshuffling of the team’s secondary. Walker, recognized for his impactful performances with 56 tackles, six pass deflections, two sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception over two seasons in Knoxville, Tennessee, recently unveiled his decision regarding the next chapter of his college football journey.
In an announcement on Monday morning, Walker disclosed that he is set to join the Louisville Cardinals for the upcoming season. This move marks his return to the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), stepping back into familiar territory after spending his initial three college years with the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets before making the transition to Tennessee.
As Tennessee football enters the offseason, the focus shifts toward shaping the roster for the 2023 season. The team has wrapped up its recent season, prompting attention to be directed towards player movements, including entries into the transfer portal and declarations for the NFL Draft. Notably, the transfer portal window spans from December 4 to January 2.
