Tennessee may be without one of its top receivers today.
Preston Williams reportedly did not travel with the team to Lexington, Ky. for the Volunteers’ game against Kentucky today. The freshman has been battling a hamstring injury that also kept him out of Tennessee’s 19-14 loss to Alabama last week, and limited him in practice.
Appears Preston Williams (hamstring) did not make the trip. Logan Fetzner is here, however.

Williams has caught seven passes for 158 yards and two touchdowns this season.
Williams’ injury is the latest setback for Tennessee’s receiving corps. Jason Croom and Vincent Perry have not played this year after suffering knee injuries. Pig Howard, the team’s leading receiver last year, was suspended for the season opener, played two games, then was kicked off the team. Marquez North missed two games after taking a hard hit against Florida. Johnathon Johnson missed four games with a hamstring injury.
