Tennessee running back Jalen Hurd is transferring from the Volunteers, and these five schools could use him on their respective offenses.

After such a thrilling start to the season for the Tennessee Volunteers, the SEC program has now lost three straight games. Now, the team has taken another huge hit with the news that star running back Jalen Hurd is transferring.

Head coach Butch Jones confirmed on Monday that Hurd will be transferring effective immediately. The Volunteers running back has been dealing with injuries this season, but has played at a high level when on the field, putting up over 500 total yards and five total touchdowns this year.

Perhaps one of the more interesting rumors surrounding Hurd’s transfer is that he may not play running back wherever he winds up next. According to local radio host Jimmy Hyams, Hurd supposedly told teammates he plans to play tight end of wide receiver wherever he plays next season.

Now that Hurd is leaving Tennessee, here are five potential landing spots for the very talented running back.
